Goody’s ex bans Tweed from seeing kids
By ANISunday, October 11, 2009
LONDON - Jeff Brazier, the father of Jade Goody’s two young sons, has banned her widower Jack Tweed from seeing the children.
The TV presenter made the pledge as 22-year-old Tweed remains remanded in custody after being accused of rape by a teenager.
“With everything that’s happened, it’s just proved too much for me to ever imagine Jack seeing the children again,” the News of the World quoted Jeff as saying.
He added: “I don’t say that as a punishment to Jack. I say that as the father of my children. They just deserve a lot better.”
The 30-year-old further said that he respected Jade’s wish before her death to let Tweed be involved in the lives of Bobby, six, and four-year-old Freddie but was hardly left with any other choice. Jeff explained: “We have no reason to be in touch. I was in the process of communicating that to him.
“I don’t think he was very accepting of it, then he got arrested. I was like, ‘That’s what I’m talking about.’ But he only saw the kids a handful of times. He made a token effort just after Jade died.
“Then it developed to Jack being in trouble and living at a place where the kids were never able to go. It just got steadily worse. I’m not surprised that this is the conclusion six months after Jade’s death.” (ANI)
