Jack Tweed is set to be a dad for the first time as he announces girlfriend Ellie Sargeant is pregnant – 15 years after his wife Jade Goody’s death

Jack Tweed, the widower of Jade Goody, has announced he is set to become a father. He revealed his girlfriend Ellie Sargeant is pregnant, 15 years after the death of his first wife.

Jack, 36, married Jade, who was 27 at the time, in a highly emotional wedding ceremony, a month before she died from cervical cancer in March 2009.

Before she was diagnosed with cancer, the couple were expecting a child, but the Big Brother star unfortunately suffered a miscarriage.

Jack joyfully revealed that he will finally become a father to The sun on Tuesday, saying his long-term partner Ellie is currently eight weeks pregnant.

And he said he believed Jade would be very happy with the news, as she had always thought he would be a great father.
