Big Brother icon Jade Goody left a huge legacy, as well as her two sons, behind when she died just over 16 years ago. Today (June 5) would have been her 44th birthday.
Jade tragically died at age 27 from cervical cancer in March 2009. She found out she had been diagnosed while competing on the Indian version of Big Brother in 2008.
While the family has continued to celebrate her life throughout the years, they have also remained in the headlines after Jade’s sons – Bobby and Freddy Brazier – appear to have distanced themselves from one another.
Here, we take a look a look at Jade’s final moments and the sad truth behind the family division…

Jade Goody married Jack Tweed
Weeks before her death, Jade got married to Jack Tweed at the Down Hall Country House Hotel in Hatfield Heath, Essex.
Guests included TV presenters Richard Madeley and Judy Finnigan, and Blue singer Antony Costa, to name a few.
Iconic girl group Sugababes also performed on the big day, and former TOWIE star Mark Wright served as Jack’s best man.
The lavish ceremony was covered by OK! magazine. However, Jade sold the rights to her wedding to TV company Living, who aired a documentary of the wedding. Jade aimed to raise as much money ahead of her death for her two sons.
