Jade to walk down the aisle…
Jade Goody has been given the shattering news that cervical cancer has ravished her body and has now spread to her bowel, groin, liver and possibly her brain as well. In short, the TV star is fighting a losing battle and may have less than eight weeks to live.
After the devastating blow was delivered by doctors at the weekend, boyfriend Jack Tweed proposed to Jade at her bedside by saying “right then we’re getting married”.
The more official, and public, proposal took place on bended knee yesterday on the Chelsea Embankment in full view of public and paparazzi.
Once again, every moment of Jade’s tortuous life is staged and lived in front of the rest of the world. It is reported that her wedding is due to take place next Sunday and is to be televised again.
But the question is, should Jade Goody and Jack Tweed be getting married, and should she be making such a big fuss over the ceremony?
It is reported that the former Big Brother star will be paid a whopping £1 MILLION for coverage of her big day, and yet the marriage itself may only last a matter of weeks.
Is it really worth all the time and effort? Should Jade really be enjoying handouts such as the £3,500 wedding dress from Harrods owner Mohammed Fayed?
To be honest, I am outraged that anyone would have the audacity to criticise Jade for wanting ONE DAY in the few she has left to enjoy her status, and celebrate her relationship with her loved ones. Why shouldn’t she rake in the cash and enjoy one lavish day?
This is a woman who has provided us with endless entertainment for the past five years, she has given herself to the public - body and soul - and yet narrow-minded people still begrudge her one day of selfishness.
Day in and day out we witness celebrities such as Coleen McLoughlin and Posh Spice spend their millions on clothes, shoes and jewellery and we don’t bat an eyelid; but in contrast we have rarely seen Jade enjoying her money.
In all the time we’ve known her, Jade has been modest with her fortune. Even now, when she should be relaxing and enjoying her last days, she’s working her arse off trying to earn as much money as possible to secure a comfortable future for her beloved children.
And yet still folk dare to say she shouldn’t be planning a wedding. The woman is dying for goodness sake!
Every girl dreams of a big white wedding, and every girl expects to enjoy a long married life with the man of her dreams.
Jade can’t have the second, but she sure as hell can have the first.
