Jade Goody's widower Jack Tweed rows with new girlfriend over tribute to late star

Jack Tweed says that his recent tribute to late wife Jade Goody has caused some friction in his relationship.

Jack and Jade wed in 2009 - just one month before her tragic death from cervical cancer, aged just 27.

And to mark their 12th wedding anniversary, Jack shared some heartfelt words alongside a snap from their wedding day.

"Her smile will always make me smile," he captioned the photograph, "11 years since we married!! Miss you #jadeslegacy #cervicalcancer #smeartest #raiseawareness."

Now Jack has moved on, and found love with a new girlfriend - but she insisted he should have told her he was sharing the post.

He told The Sun : "She's not talking to me at the moment because I put something up on Instagram and she said I should've warned her.

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

Jack added: "Girls have said in the past, 'Well you obviously don't like me and I'm not here to be compared to Jade. So let's just call it a day.'

"So, I'm just sort of waiting for that to happen with this one, basically. I compare everyone to Jade and it's why I can't settle down - they always dump me over it in the end."

He previously told the publication that he'd met someone special, and that he'd like to "settle down again."

"I've met someone. She's a really nice girl," he gushed.

"We talk every day and it's probably the most serious I've been since Jade. It's hard for me because I will compare it all with Jade. I will never forget about Jade."

Jack and Jade had met in 2005 in an Essex nightclub, catching each other's eye across the dance floor before her mate passed her number to Jack.

Jade was instantly impressed by how good Jack was with her sons Bobby and Freddie, whom she shared with ex Jeff Brazier, and he moved into her home.

And when they wed, Jade told OK! magazine : "I've had the happiest day of my life. Now I'm ready to go to heaven."

She died two weeks later.

Last year, Jack told that he'd reconnected with stepsons Bobby and Freddie, dad Jeff taking them round for dinner.

"I have seen the boys and I speak to them," he told Closer.

"On one occasion, Jeff came with them and we had a family lunch together, which was really nice.

"Bobby and Freddie have grown into such lovely and polite young men. Jade would be so proud of them, and Jeff has done such a good job bringing them up."
