British reality TV star Jade Goody, has died at the age of 27. Her publicist, Max Clifford, confirmed the news and said she passed away in her sleep, at her home in Upshire, Essex, at 3:14 a.m. on UK's Mother's Day, March 22.
Goody, who was diagnosed with cervical cancer last August, fought her disease as hard as she could, but unfortunately the cancer had spread to her liver, groin and bowel in recent weeks.
She managed to accomplish a lot in her final weeks, including marrying Jack Tweed, and being christened with her sons, Bobby Jack, 5, and Freddie, 4.
Jade had been treated at the Royal Marsden Hospital in west London, but after her latest operation, she asked to be sent home to die. She wanted "to spend all the time she had got left" surrounded by her loved ones.
Her mom Jackiey Budden said: "My beautiful daughter is at peace."
Jade, you were a brave woman and your boys will be very proud of all you've accomplished. Rest in peace.
