Jeff Brazier shares photos with his baby granddaughter Isa Jade and sons Freddy and Bobby as he promises to ‘tell her all about’ her late grandmother Jade Goody

by

Jeff Brazier posted photos of himself with his newborn granddaughter on Instagram Sunday, and vowed to share stories about her late mother, Jade Goody.

Earlier this month, Freddy and his girlfriend, Holly Swinburn – who recently got back together – announced the birth of their daughter, Isla Jade Brazier.

Freddy was only four years old when his mother, Jade, passed away from cervical cancer on Mother’s Day in 2009. His parents honored her memory by naming their daughter after her.

Since her death, their dad, Jeff, 46, has been looking after Freddy and his older brother, Bobby.

Jeff announced the arrival of his granddaughter with a heartwarming photo of him cradling the newborn.

He also posted several photos from the hospital, including one of him, his sons, and Holly soon after she had the baby.

Alongside his post, Jeff penned: ‘Dear Isla Jade. You have no idea how deeply loved you are. 

You have a lot of wonderful people supporting you, and a very special guardian angel looking out for you. Your mom and dad chose her name and planned to share her story with you.

You are the best gift I could ever ask for. I’m so thankful to Mom and Dad for bringing you into my life and filling it with happiness. Thank you, Holly and Freddy, I love you both very much.

Being close to you brings me so much joy and calm. I love you very much, from Grandad (Feel free to pick a more fun nickname for me when you’re bigger!)

Freddy and Holly connected on TikTok in June 2025, and announced they were going to have a baby two months after that.

Well, it’s always tough when a relationship ends, and this one unfortunately came to a head in November. From what I understand, things fell apart after he had some parties at their house with other women and was reportedly using cannabis while she was away. It’s a really difficult situation, and clearly a breach of trust.

Since rekindling their relationship this year, Freddy has now vowed to be the ‘best dad he can be’.

Holly was away on a family vacation when she found out Freddy had invited guests back to her apartment and left her dog, Pablo, unattended for extended periods.

She said she’d been there for Freddy, offering both emotional and financial support. However, things became impossible to continue once she found out what occurred at her house while she was away.

She added that lots had been said that was false, and she felt like she needed to have her say.

Holly explained that her neighbors had complained about the noise, and she’d finally reached her limit. She decided it was time to end the situation completely.

After getting back together at a baby shower for Holly, they’ve decided to try dating again, and Freddy has moved back in with her.

She has since shut down rumours that their baby will appear in a family-style reality series.

Holly subtly criticized the Brazier family on TikTok, telling her 96,000 followers that she was taken advantage of online but has since learned from the experience.

I want my child to have a private, dignified, and safe upbringing – not to be treated like a product or the subject of a film about my life.

Last year, the Daily Mail reported that Jeff was discussing a potential TV series with ITV. The show would document his life and the challenges he and his sons are facing, including his breakup with his wife, Kate Dwyer, which happened last November.

He’s no longer involved in the planned documentary series, similar to ‘The Osbournes,’ but Freddy and Bobby are still working on their own reality show, according to reports.

Jeff reportedly withdrew from the show due to family stress, and he was surprised and upset by his children’s choices.

Recently, Jeff has had a strained relationship with Jade’s mother, Jackiey Budden, because he feels she’s had a negative impact on Jade.

At one stage, he attempted to launch a legal bid to keep his youngest son away from her.

I was so upset to see Jeff trying to keep Jackiey away from her son! He was using all sorts of legal stuff, complicated court documents, claiming she was to blame for Freddy’s recent struggles. It felt like a really unfair attempt to punish her and control the situation.

Freddy sided with his grandmother, and Jeff later dropped the action.
