Jade Goody and Jack Tweed, London

Jade Goody has signed a £700,000 deal for magazine coverage of her wedding – and has agreed to give a last TV interview to former newspaper editor Piers Morgan.

The 27-year-old’s dream ‘big, white wedding’ to Jack Tweed will feature in celebrity magazine OK!

The Big Brother star, who’s been told she only has two months to live, is due to marry at Down Hall on Sunday.

The ceremony will be filmed for her fly-in-the-wall series on Living TV, which will broadcast it next month.

Jade is also preparing to give her last TV interview to Britain’s Got Talent judge Piers Morgan.

She has reportedly agreed a deal with Morgan for a one-off special on ITV1.

Goody has made no secret of the fact she is now trying to make as much money as possible for her two sons, Bobby, five, and Freddie, four, before she dies.

Publicist Max Clifford yesterday stressed the death of the cancer-stricken star will not be captured by cameras.

‘There will be no filming of Jade dying. It has not even been thought about, nor will it be,’ he insisted.

Meanwhile, the Prime Minister has expressed his sorrow about Goody’s tragic situation.

‘It’s very sad and, indeed, tragic that someone so young has got this deadly disease of cancer.

‘It’s very sad indeed that the treatment given has not been successful.’

He added: ‘I think everyone has their own ways of dealing with these problems, and her determination to help her family is something that we’ve got to applaud.’

Its hard enough for an older woman with a long time, rock sold partner and extended family around to go tyhrough this. It must be mental torture for Jade as a (curently) single mum to have to think fo her small children being parentless in so short a time!
Good luck to her for trying to raise as much money for them as possible in what little time she has left. I can only wish that I would have been this strong if it had been me 30 years ago .... I do not think I would have been.
My thoughts are with Jade too. Bless her.

It is all very sad and no one should have to suffer like this. However, there are many, many people going through the same thing that have had far more respect for their fellow humanbeings than Jade has in the past. Perhaps our thoughts should be with all people around the world suffering and dying from this terrible disease. Some of whom are leaving children behind who only have adoption to look forward to because they are genuinely parentless and possibly penniless as well.

I sympathise with her situation, especially as she has young children. She has highlighted the disease and made people more aware, but Why does she rely on the medical community to save her life, she should research alternative treatments - there are clinics in Europe and America saving people with cancer who are prepared to go down this route. If I was in her situation I would be prepared to try anything to survive.
