JADE Goody’s husband begged probation chiefs to take off his tag yesterday — so he can be at her side for her final hours.
Jack Tweed, 21, asked for his curfew to be lifted until she dies, telling them: “She’s my wife and she needs me.”
He is anxiously waiting for their decision after making his case at the pre-arranged meeting.
Jack said he was “feeling hopeful” as he arrived to ask for a suspended tag at the probation offices in Harlow, Essex.
After leaving, he said: “Hopefully they will relax the tag to let me be with Jade. She’s my wife and she needs me by her side.”
Jack has a 7pm curfew as part of his early release from an 18-month jail sentence for assaulting a teenager with a golf club.
Every night he must leave his wife’s bedside to go to his mum Mary’s house in Buckhurst Hill.
It is a twenty-minute drive from Jade’s home in Upshire — time that could be crucial if she has a seizure or stops breathing.
Jack has been left “heartbroken” at having to leave her.
The daily goodbyes are said to upset the whole family and he has told probation officers it causes her extreme distress.
A friend said: “Not having her husband with her is causing added upset to Jade.
“She becomes tearful when it starts getting close to the time when Jack has to leave.
“He said he will break the curfew if she starts slipping away — but she doesn’t want him to end up back in prison.
“It is a constant stress which she doesn’t need.
“They have had such a short time together as man and wife. It would be heartbreaking if they were denied this final time together.”
Jade’s spokesman said the former Big Brother star, 27, understood Jack’s bail terms.
He said: “They have put a few feelers out but they are not really expecting anything.
“They are exploring possibilities. Both Jade and Jack were chuffed they got to spend their wedding night together.
“We are not taking liberties. We don’t want to push it and we understand the deal — but it would be wonderful if something could be done.
“Jade would obviously love to have her husband by her side at the moment.”
Yesterday Jack went straight to Jade’s house after making his case alone to officials.
Dressed in jeans and a green jacket, his mum dropped him off just before 3pm.
Ten minutes later he left the £750,000 barn conversion in a silver Mercedes to pick up her sons Bobby, five, and Freddie, four, from school.
He returned with the boys, carrying their green book bags.
Jack was with Jade’s close friend and personal trainer Kevin Adams, who had walked her sons to school earlier.
Exhausted Jade — who has been told she could have weeks to live — did not go to hospital yesterday.
Doctors from London’s Royal Marsden Hospital visited her bedside.
Her spokesman said: “They are trying to make her as comfortable as possible and they are making sure she has everything she needs.”
He added: “She has been sleeping a lot. She is still recovering from her wedding on Sunday, which is understandable. She is relaxing.”
Jade is being cared for around the clock by a team of Macmillan nurses.
Her mum Jackiey Budden is also living at the house, helping to care for the boys.
A christening Jade planned for them has been postponed.
The low-key ceremony — for about 50 close friends and family — is now expected to take place on Saturday March 7.
Her spokesman said: “Saturday is just a better day for everyone.
“She wants it to be a big party for the boys — a real huge celebration for them.”
I know she is dying but he should abide by the terms of his bail. I'll be pretty annoyed if the parole board remove his tag. Just because it's a high profile case doesn't mean he should get what he wants. The curfew was lifted for the wedding, that's enough.
By all means extend the curfew a few hours but he shouldn't have his tag removed.
It doesn't sound like he was 'by her side' on his wedding night when he had the curfew lifted last week.....
i dont think he should have the tag removed completely cos then he could go out and do whatever he wants. if it does get changed, it should be that hes either at his mums house or with jade by 7pm imo
How long does he have to wear the tag for? Is it for the remainder of the 18 months sentence? You can understand he wants to be with Jade as her condition deterioates but why not transfer the curfew to Jade's house so he can be with her every night and still be indoor for 7pm.
I was thinking that, now he is married it should not really be a problem to transfer his curfew conditions from his mums to Jade's place. Anybody on here legally knowledgeable to answer this?
Jade Goody was reportedly "too ill" for a hospital visit with cancer specialists yesterday.
The former Big Brother contestant cancelled her appointment after claiming that she was too exhausted following her wedding last weekend.
"She knew this was going to happen and that she would be this tired and ill. It was the price she was always going to pay for putting so much into Sunday's ceremony," a source told The Mirror.
"She feels terrible but wouldn't change a thing. She is still on a high and thrilled with the memories of her wedding. It was such a perfect day, she is more than happy to suffer for it now. We're just hoping she'll bounce back."
Doctors visited the star at her Essex home and a bed has reportedly been placed in her dining room so she can have regular morphine injections.
"The doctors came to her and made sure everything possible was being done to keep on top of the pain. I am sure she will recover, Jade being Jade," her publicist Max Clifford said.
"She showed how resilient she was at her wedding and she'll do the same again. She just needs a few days' rest and I'm sure she'll be better by the end of the week."
Goody's husband Jack Tweed yesterday asked probation officers to relax his curfew so he could spend more evenings with his wife.
I am sure she will want to be well enough for her son's christening next month, so hopefully she will be able to rest up until then.
