Flowers and support make Jade smile

20 January 2009
The star, who is battling with terminal cancer, sent a message of thanks to the public for all the support.
Close friend and personal trainer Kevin Adams spoke to reporters outside her home in Waltham Abbey, Essex.
He said: "Jade just says thanks everyone for the flowers and that her house now smells like the Chelsea Flower Show and it brought a smile to her face."
Mr Adams has been living at Jade's house and caring for her throughout her ordeal.
Goody's mother Jackiey Budden said: "I just want to thank the whole public for the support they've given Jade and the presents and the flowers and all the support cards."
Later, Goody's husband Jack Tweed left the house with Mr Adams without answering questions from the media.
Ms Budden and Tweed have kept a vigil at Goody's bedside in recent days as the 27-year-old has drifted in and out of consciousness.
She was keen for her funeral to be a celebration of her life, and a "very Jade Goody" event, her friend and publicist Max Clifford said on Thursday.
Her funeral is expected to see a cortege drive through the streets of Bermondsey in south east London, where Goody grew up. She will be buried in the churchyard of St John the Baptist in Buckhurst Hill, Essex.
