Jade nets £1m deal for wedding day coverage

Jade Goody is to sell the rights to her wedding for £1m. The cancer-stricken reality TV star has secured a deal with OK! magazine for exclusive photo coverage worth £700,000.
Deal: Living TV and OK! will be covering Goody's marriage on Sunday
Her marriage to Jack Tweed on Sunday will also be filmed by Living TV, which has been following her throughout her illness. The TV coverage is worth £100,000 and Goody, who has said she is trying to make as much money as she can to put aside for sons Bobby, five, and Freddie, four, is expected to make a further £200,000 from tie-in deals.
Preparations: Tweed gets fitted for his wedding suit
Tweed proposed last week after Goody, 27, was told that her cervical cancer was terminal. A £3,500 silk mikado wedding dress, a gift from Harrods owner Mohamed Fayed, was delivered to Goody at the Royal Marsden Hospital yesterday.
Tweed, 21, told OK!: "For a moment we forgot about all her pain." Earlier this week she patched up differences with Bollywood star Shilpa Shetty, after their race row on Celebrity Big Brother in 2006. Shetty sent Goody her best wishes for Sunday.

Bless you Jade, bless your boys and ofcoarse Jack....
I have been a huge fan since the day we saw you arrive on big brother, you lit up the house, with your huge smile and your even bigger personality..
Don't let these horrendous people on websites get to you....can't you see, they have been jealous of you for years...What goes around, comes around and like has already been said, some of them will have the big C knocking on their doors. I hope that they get the same and worse treatment that they are showing towards you....evil, evil people.
You are a wonderful person, and I haven't stopped thinking about you for months. I just wish someone could stop all of this happening to you, you don't derserve it. Poor Jack will need all the support he can get, he will be the one that it will hit the hardest in the end.....God bless you all....I wish we could make it all go away.........
forever in my thoughts...
