Nothing could make a parent prouder than seeing their children grow and flourish in their respective careers.
That’s exactly the feeling Jeff Brazier is experiencing as he prepares to say goodbye to his son Bobby, who is set to leave Britain for New York.
The This morning star, 47, shares 23-year-old Bobby with late Big brother legend Jade Goody, who died in 2009 aged 27 after a battle with cervical cancer.
Saturday would have marked Jade’s 45th birthday and Jeff made sure to pay tribute to her almost two decades after her tragic death.
He wrote on Instagram: ‘A wonderful little gathering last night. There were a few people who wanted to wish Bobby safe travels as he leaves for his NY adventures soon! I will miss him so much! And also to raise a glass to what would have been Jade’s 45th birthday.’
The emotional post comes after Jeff recently became a grandfather when his son Freddy, 21, welcomed daughter Isla Jade in March.
It also follows reports that Jeff Brazier has since been approached to join Strictly Come Dancing years after his son Bobby joined the show.
Insiders claim the BBC has asked the 47-year-old This Morningg regular to participate in this year’s line-up.
