Jade Goody's widower Jack Tweed finds love again 12 years after her Mother's Day death

Jade Goody's widower has found love again, he has revealed.

Twelve years on from losing his wife on Mother's Day, Jack Tweed shared his happy news.

“I’ve met someone. She's a really nice girl,” he told The Sun.

“We talk every day and it's probably the most serious I've been since Jade."

He said his new girlfriend was from Essex, like Jade, and they met via Instagram.

But Jack, 33, said he couldn't help but compare every girl he met to Jade, who was just 27 when she died of cervical cancer in 2009, a month after they wed.

And he said he and his new love were not currently talking to him after he remembered Jade with social media post last month, on what would have been their twelve anniversary.

"I would feel guilty and horrible if I didn't acknowledge the days that are special to me though," Jack told the publication.

Big Brother star Jade had two young sons when she died, Bobby and Freddie, who were raised by her ex Jeff Brazier.

Jack said he misses the two 'terribly' having helped Jade raise them before her death.

He said: "I brought the boys up. All the boys’ life and memories of Jade are with me."

But, he admitted, he did not blame Jeff for cutting him out of their lives.

Jack had been in trouble with the law before Jade's death, spending time in prison at one point.

He recalled: "I didn't expect Jeff to do anything different - I was getting myself into trouble, so it’s probably the right decision Jeff made.”
