She said officers had been called in to investigate because she feared for her safety.
Jade made the claims today on Channel 5 show The Wright Stuff, the latest in a string of tearful TV appearances.
It was also reported that her mum Jackiey, 48, had fled her south London home after vandals threw bricks at it.
But today Essex police said they had not been called in, and denied they were guarding Jade's house.
They said one window had been broken, but this had been spotted by officers on a routine patrol and was not being treated as a suspicious incident at this stage.
A police spokesman said only one pane of a double glazed unit had been broken and added: "It wouldn't appear to be a determined effort. We are waiting to talk to a neighbour to see if it has always been like this."
Speaking on TV today, Jade said: "I went home this morning to get a change of clothes and my house windows had been smashed." She added that police were "sitting outside".
Jade also said she had been too ashamed to see her two children since being evicted.
