Jeff Brazier has revealed that he spent two nights sleeping in his camper van with his son Bobby, ahead of the birth of his first grandchild. Jeff's son Freddie welcomed daughter Isla Jade Brazier this weekend with his girlfriend, Holly Swinburn.
Jeff opened up on the experience and said he and Bobby spent two nights in the camper van to be closer to the hospital. Taking to Instagram on Sunday, Jeff wrote: "Bob and I stayed nearby in the camper for both nights while Holly and Fred were in hospital. I didn't want Pamela to feel left out. We used a nearby gym for showers, food and long period of nervous, excited waiting time."
The 46-year-old also posted an emotional message, writing: "Dear Isla Jade. You have no idea how deeply loved you are. There are so many good people standing behind you, and a very special angel watching over you. Mummy and Daddy gave you her name, and were going to tell you all about her."
Freddy named his daughter after his mother, Jade, a tribute after losing her when he was just four years old. Jade Goody died from cervical cancer on Mother's Day in 2009.
Jeff and Freddy recently reunited after a bust-up involving Jackiey Budden, Jade's mum. Freddy had reportedly been living with his maternal grandmother earlier this year, despite Jeff taking legal action to block their contact. Freddy claimed the 68-year-old got him 'hooked on drugs' at the age of 12, something she denies.
