Bobby Brazier was seen doting over his brother Freddy's baby daughter Isla Jade on Saturday, following the Daily Mail's revelation that the new father and his girlfriend Holly Swinburn had parted ways once more. The 22-year-old son of the late Big Brother star Jade Goody and TV presenter Jeff Brazier, along with Holly, also 22, welcomed their daughter in March after rekindling their relationship.
However, since the birth, friends of the couple have described their relationship as 'toxic' and believe they have split for good. The friends say the pair are 'no longer talking' and that the split has become 'very, very hostile'.
Jeff Brazier took to Instagram with a series of sweet snaps showing former EastEnders star Bobby lovingly cradling his two-month-old niece, a huge smile on his face. The caption read: 'Uncle Bobby x Isla Jade'.
The Daily Mail reported on Friday that the young parents were no longer living together, but wider family members were trying to smooth things over for the sake of their newborn.
Relationship Details
'Freddy and Holly have struggled to make their relationship work. It has turned volatile and toxic,' one friend said. 'In recent days, they had an explosive row and have decided to split, and this time they are saying it is for good. Right now, there is absolutely no way back. Things have gone too far for that.'
'It's really sad, they were both excited about becoming parents, but it seems to have been unsustainable. Holly is a new mum, and Freddy seems to be struggling. It's an absolute mess.'
Freddy and Holly met on TikTok in June 2025 and announced they were expecting their first child two months later. They then split in November after he reportedly 'partied with girls and smoked cannabis in her home' while she was abroad. Since rekindling their relationship earlier this year, Freddy has vowed to be the 'best dad he can be'.
But last month, the model moved out of their home before flying to Gran Canaria after Holly refused his grandmother, Jackiey Budden, an opportunity to meet their daughter. Just two weeks later, they appeared more loved up than ever as they were pictured out for a stroll in Essex with their newborn in the pram before stopping for a feed, but the happiness was short-lived.
Family Tensions
Holly is said to have concerns about Jackiey's lifestyle and believes she has been a negative influence on Freddy. Freddy previously claimed that he had come to the realisation that his grandmother had been lying to him in an explosive TikTok video. However, in December, he appeared to have patched things up with her just in time for Christmas.
Last year, Freddy's father Jeff, 46, tried to instil a court order to prevent Jackiey from having contact with his son, as he feared she was a negative influence on him. Since Jade Goody's death, Jeff has looked after Freddy and his older brother Bobby Brazier, 22. Jackiey, 68, helped raise the boys, but she and Jeff have clashed multiple times over the years.
Since Isla Jade was born, Jeff has been every inch the doting grandfather. Earlier this month, he shared a sweet snap cuddled up to the tot and wrote: 'I don't know that I could love her more. A weekend to celebrate our special girl and her Mum and Dad, who are doing a great job. She's perfect.'
The Daily Mail has contacted Freddy's representatives for comment.
