Freddy Brazier has said that Mother’s Day is ‘the hardest time’ as he revealed he has been confiding in his late mum Jade Goody at her gravestone ahead of the birth of his first child.
The influencer, 21, sadly lost his mother Jade when he was just four years old after she died from cervical cancer on Mother’s Day in 2009.
Since Big Brother star Jade’s death, Freddy’s father Jeff looked after him and his older brother Bobby.
Ahead of Mother’s Day on Sunday, Freddy opened up about how it is a difficult day for him as it makes him think about how he would spend it with his mum if she was still alive.
Freddy is currently expecting his first child with his pregnant ex Holly Swinburn – and he revealed he has been visiting his mum’s grave to tell her about becoming a dad.
‘I’ve often looked at people out with their mums on Mother’s Day and thought, “You’re so lucky . . . I wish I could have a special day with my mum”,’ he told The Sun.

‘But now, I’ll be able to make new memories with my baby daughter.’
Discussing visiting Jade’s grave, Freddy said it brings him comfort to be able to talk to her.
‘I told her what was going on with the baby and how I am feeling, but sometimes I struggle talking to a headstone,’ he said.
Freddy has rekindled his relationship with his ex, 22, after they split when he ‘partied with girls and smoked cannabis in her home’ while she was abroad.
But Freddy has now vowed to be the ‘the best dad he can be’, as he showered Holly with red roses and packed on the PDA during a romantic stroll on Saturday, before the arrival of their baby which is due in April.
The couple were spotted stopping to sit on a bench, where they engaged in a snogging session.
Holly discovered she was pregnant in August and she and Freddy split in November.
But after the pair reunited for Holly’s baby shower last month, they’ve since confirmed they’re giving their romance another go, with Freddy moving back into Holly’s flat.
The pair are set to welcome a baby girl in April, with sources saying Freddy has vowed to ‘step up’ ahead of becoming a father.

But some sources are claiming that members of Holly’s family are still concerned that Freddy could be influenced by his grandmother Jackiey Budden, 68, after his father Jeff attempted to legally block her from seeing her grandson.
Confirming their rekindled romance, Freddy recently told The Sun: ‘We are stronger than ever, it’s a fresh start for both of us.’
A source added: ‘Freddy is really excited about having a family of his own and reunited with Holly last month at her baby shower.
‘He has been focusing on maturing and preparing to be a dad. It all feels really positive.’
But insiders went on to share their concerns around Jackiey’s influence over her grandson, adding: ‘She is volatile and very possessive over Freddy. It’s like she can’t share him with anyone.
‘So there are serious concerns about how she will act when the baby arrives.’
The Daily Mail has contacted a representative for Freddy Brazier for comment.
Freddy was said to have rowed with Holly in recent weeks over claims she was smoking cigarettes while pregnant with their child.
Meanwhile, Holly also recently shut down rumours that their baby will appear in a family style reality series.
