Freddy and Jeff Brazier feud bombshell twist: As I’m told police are involved, his granny Jackiey rings me up spitting blood and rages: ‘I can only think Jeff and his little princess wife have put him up to it!’ KATIE HIND

This conflict within the family was certainly something that the cherished Jade Goody would have found deeply distressing.

At the end of her life in 2009, she felt a deep concern about how her sons, Bobby and Freddy, would fare without her around to guide them.

Based on recent events involving her 20-year-old son Freddy, there were certainly reasons for her concern to arise.

This week, the unconventional celebrity, both a TV personality and model, asserted that it was his grandmother (Jade’s mom) who introduced him to marijuana when he was 12 years old. Furthermore, he disclosed that he had been hospitalized due to battles with addiction and manic episodes.

According to those familiar with the Braziers, Freddy appears to be quite busy and uncertain as he maneuvers through his early years in the entertainment industry.

It’s reported that a dispute between him and his father, Jeff Brazier (a parenting expert on ITV’s This Morning), escalated to a point where the police had to intervene.

Instead of what Jade had envisioned for her young three-year-old loved one, Freddy, she tragically passed away from cervical cancer at the age of 27.

However, it was her hope that Jackiey Budden, her mother who had struggled with drug abuse, could still serve as a positive role model for her young sons, given the circumstances.

Currently, Freddy and Jackie, who used to be extremely close, find themselves in a contentious situation due to accusations he’s leveled against her.

In a recent episode of his new podcast, titled “Load Of Old Cobblers,” he shared that it was his grandmother who introduced him to marijuana at the age of 12, thereby sparking his interest in it.

I started smoking when I was 12, and I’ve been through rehabilitation programs. I’ve also experienced hospitalization due to my condition, and I’ve had periods of extreme mood swings. It’s been quite a long and difficult journey for me.

Freddy’s claims, regarding the woman he’s been intermittently living with for the past two years, whom he fondly refers to as ‘nana’, have sparked her anger, leading her to contact The Daily Mail to share her perspective on the matter.

Jackie, who has acknowledged sharing a marijuana experience with her grandson earlier, maintains that she is not accountable for his cannabis habits. Instead, she attributes his estrangement from her to his father Jeff Brazier and his wife Kate.

In an intense response, she exclaimed, “I’ve gone through everything he’s claimed about me, and I find it hard to believe he’d utter such words. It’s completely untrue – I can barely fathom it.

Freddy started smoking with his friends when we were kids, even before we smoked together back in Essex, close to Jeff’s place – his association with rough groups didn’t involve me in any way.

What I’ve always aimed to provide is a secure haven for him whenever he needs it, and it truly saddens me that his actions might suggest otherwise.

It seems Jeff’s wife might be the one encouraging this situation, though I’m unsure of her motivations. Regardless, things had been going well before this point.

For the past year, Freddy has encountered some challenging times that included a dramatic rift with his dad and elder brother Bobby, who is 22 years old.

Jeff went so far as to engage legal representation with the intention of preventing access to his grandmother, maintaining that she was having a negative impact on him.

At that moment, Freddy was firmly against the idea: ‘No obstacle could prevent me from visiting my Nana. She’s family, and she’s as close to me as a mother.’

He stated his intention to disregard any legal prohibition restricting their interaction, going as far as traveling overseas if required, in order to be with Jackiey.

In the face of such obstinacy, Jeff abandoned his legal action.

Although he has reconciled with Freddy, his loved ones remain concerned due to his increasingly erratic behavior that continues to cause unease among them.

A friend of mine mentioned: ‘Freddy is quite unpredictable. One day he’ll say something and the complete opposite the next. Sometimes he talks about wanting to follow his father’s advice, even going as far as considering rehab. But just a few hours later, he’ll change his mind, claiming there are no problems, and storming off angrily again.’

The romantic encounters have also been quite complicated. A few months ago, there was a woman he had been seeing intensely. They lived together for a while, but soon found themselves involved in several heated arguments. Eventually, they parted ways.

‘It’s quite hard to keep up. To be honest, it’s no wonder his dad has been concerned about him.

‘Jeff and Jackie’s situation seems to be only a small part of the larger problem involving Freddy. The situation is complex, chaotic, and it appears distant from finding a solution. It’s truly unfortunate, as it’s rather heartbreaking.’

Freddy has sought solace in romance but that, say friends, has only caused him more turmoil.

multiple brief romances involving attractive internet personalities, some of which ended acrimoniously, have passed through, leaving behind a trail of allegations against each other, leading to reports to law enforcement agencies.

In a sharp turn of events, Freddy’s allegations against his grandmother contradict what he stated earlier this year during an interview, where he praised her for having no role in his drug problems.

Lately, it appears he resided with Jackiey in her apartment in Bermondsey, South London. However, reports suggest that he has relocated, and now spends his time back in Essex, living with his father and socializing with friends.

Although he repeatedly tells those around him that he intends to secure a long-term residence independently shortly, some remain unconvinced.

Apparently, he expresses an interest in living independently, but it seems as though he’s not emotionally or financially prepared to manage a home at this time,” could be a natural and easy-to-read paraphrase of the given sentence.

Until he reaches his mid-20s, he’ll be financially independent as he isn’t employed and doesn’t have access to his mother’s savings. Consequently, he will need to figure out how to cover his own rental expenses during that period.

It seems his modeling aspirations haven’t blossomed as much as he’d envisioned, and there has been a break in his television acting roles recently.

This week has brought news that his elder brother, the Strictly Come Dancing star Bobby (aged 22), who is deeply devoted to Hare Krishna – a form of Hinduism which places great importance on devotion to a deity named Krishna – intends to relocate to India. This decision stems from his recent resignation from his acting position on EastEnders, as he seeks to immerse himself more fully in his faith.

Besides Jeff’s disagreements with Freddy, there are also tensions within the family due to Jeff’s conflicts with Bobby, which have been widely reported.

Another person commented: ‘He hadn’t imagined things would end up like this with his sons. It’s truly unfortunate.’
