Jade Goody would be so proud of her sons, according to widower Jack Tweed

The 'Big Brother' star - who was mother to Bobby, 19, and Freddie, 17, from her relationship with Jeff Brazier - tied the knot with Jack Tweed just one month before she died from cervical cancer in 2009 aged 27, and now her widower has explained he is "really pleased" after her eldest landed a role in BBC soap opera 'EastEnders'.

He said: "He’s in 'EastEnders'! He’s doing his modelling as well, I’m really pleased for him. Jade would be really proud. If you met Bobby, he’s sort of made for that life – he’s got so much confidence, he’s like his mum in a lot of ways. I’m not worried about it!"

Meanwhile, 'Celebrity Big Brother' star Jack went on to explain that he still sees his stepsons - who now live with their father Jeff and his wife Kate Dwyer - and that Bobby is "always asking questions" about his late mum.

Jack told Metro.co.uk: "I still talk to them. Freddie was away when I did the ball but Bobby came down and I went for dinner with him the other month as well, it is good to stay in touch.

"They’re doing really well for themselves. Bobby actually looks exactly like his mum, so we had a big conversation about that the other day. He does always ask questions.

"You don’t really get over it, you just learn to live with it."

Bobby has filmed his first scenes as Freddie Slater in the long-running soap opera and admitted he was "shaking" after stepping onto the famous Albert Square set for the first time.

He said: "It was overwhelming emotions to play I was shaking. I felt that I was acting and I went off after this scene finished I went round the corner so other actors could finish the scene."
