London: Jade Goody and children baptised


Big Brother star Jade Goody, who is suffering from terminal cancer, was baptised along with her two children on Saturday, in what her publicist called her "final goodbye".

Goody, 27, was "very pale and fragile" during the ceremony at the Royal Marsden Hospital in west London, publicist Max Clifford said.

Sitting in a chair, Goody wore her hospital gown and had her drip still attached during the christenings.

Jade had wanted the baptisms to take place in a church but was too unwell to leave hospital. The star, whose cervical cancer has spread to other parts of her body, is believed to have only weeks to live.

Clifford said: "She finds it very hard to stay awake for more than a few minutes but she stayed awake for the 20 minutes of the service."

Jade married her partner Jack Tweed, on 22 February. She said she is trying to earn as much money as she can in her remaining days to pay for the future of her sons Bobby, five, and Freddy, four.
