Freddy Brazier is reportedly set to become a father at 20 as his ex-girlfriend is pregnant. Freddy, the son of This Morning star Jeff Brazer and the late Jade Goody, is best known for appearing on BBC's Celebrity Race Across the World with his TV star father. The aspiring model has allegedly turned to Jeff for support after being "blindsided" by the news. "It has blindsided him and has been one of the things that has really brought him and his dad back together, but it's so devastating that Jade isn't here to see it," a friend told The Mail on Sunday.

"Jeff was one of the first people he decide to confide in to ask for advice, and he stepped up straight away and wanted to help in any way he could." Last month, reports emerged that Freddy had parted ways with his girlfriend Holly Swinburn. Their short-lived relationship with the child's mother is believed to have ended on a tense note, reportedly escalating to the point of police involvement.

Speaking about the split, a source told MailOnline: "Things got very intense very quickly and Freddy had been living with Holly and they had holidayed together, making plans for their future, but it has turned ugly pretty fast.

"There has been an almighty fall out and neither party believes they're in the wrong - it has become the latest saga in Freddy's life following a series of setbacks. Nothing seems simple at the moment."

It comes after Freddy accused his grandmother, Jackiey Budden, of aiding his addiction to cannabis when he was just 12, despite previously claiming that she was not responsible for his drug use.

But on his Load Of Old Cobblers podcast, Freddy said: "My nan is definitely the person who introduced me to reefer and got me hooked. It's one of those things, I was 12.

"I've been smoking since I was 12, I've been to rehab, I've been sectioned, I've had manic episodes, I've been sectioned. There's been a real journey and it's been a tough one."

Jackiey vehemently denied the claims, snapping back: "I've read all these things he's said about me and I just can't believe he'd say them. It just isn't true at all - I can't believe it."
