Goody and sons to be christened

Goody and sons to be christened

The sons of terminally ill reality TV star Jade Goody have arrived at hospital for their joint christening ceremony with their mother.

Bobby, five, and Freddy, four, were led in to the Royal Marsden Hospital in west London by their father Jeff Brazier.

Flowers were also delivered for the ceremony at the hospital chapel.

It had been hoped the ceremony would take place in a church, but Ms Goody, 27, has been heavily sedated.

Her publicist Max Clifford said it would take place just before 1200 GMT "subject to everything being OK".

The mother-of-two has only weeks to live after her cervical cancer spread to her liver, groin and bowel.

'Pick up'

Mr Clifford said the event would be a "small affair", attended by around 20 to 30 close family members and friends.

He added: "In terms of parties, that will have to wait. It's what Jade wanted to do."

Asked about Ms Goody's condition, Mr Clifford said she was "sleeping most of the time, not really wanting visitors".

He added: "She just says a few words and wants to go to sleep.

"We hope that things will pick up."

Ms Goody has vowed to raise as much cash as possible for her sons, Bobby, five, and four-year-old Freddie, through media deals before she dies.

Her husband, Jack Tweed, 21, is awaiting sentence after he was found guilty of attacking a taxi driver and threatening to stab him after leaving a club in Essex last year.
