Of course it was nothing compared to her troubles this week - she is dealing with the news of her cancer diagnosis and boyfriend Jack Tweed's unexpected conviction.

Tweed  was jailed for 18 months earlier for attacking a teenager with a golf club despite telling the judge through his barrister that he was needed to help nurse Jade through the life-threatening illness.

His imprisonment was came as a huge blow to Jade, who told a friend: 'This couldn't have come at a worse time. I'm in bits. I'm devastated. Jack is my rock.'

Miss Goody, 27, who recently moved to Upshire in Essex, learned she had a tumour in her cervix while appearing in the Indian version of Big Brother last month.

On Monday morning, she told GMTV that doctors initially gave her the all clear, and sent her away with just pain killers for period pain.

Miss Goody was rumoured to be making a reality TV show documenting her battle with the disease, but the star dismissed the claims.

She said: 'I'm not doing a TV show out of this. I was filming before and it all finished when I went to India.  

'I would never do that, it's something that I need to go through on my own and get strong.'
