Strictly Come Dancing's Bobby Brazier looks adorable in previously unseen childhood photos aged 15-months with his grandmother, Jackiey Budden.
Bobby, 20, is the eldest son of late reality star Jade Goody – who died aged 27 in 2009 after she was diagnosed with cervical cancer. Shipwrecked star Jeff Brazier, 44, is the father of Bobby and Big Brother star Jade’s other son Freddie, who is aged 19 – and he welcomed his sons during his short romance with Jade, which lasted from 2002 until 2004.
Actor Bobby, who currently portrays Freddie Slater on EastEnders, is currently competing on Strictly 2023 and has reached the coveted semi-finals stage of the competition with pro partner Dianne Buswell. However, Bobby looked almost unrecognisable in adorable childhood pictures taken when he was 15-months back in 2004 with Jade's mum and Bobby's grandmother, Jackiey.

He is doing amazing. It's great to see. I watch as a very proud nan. It's wonderful. Of course, I am pleased he is doing well.” Jackiey’s latest update comes after she previously expressed her joy at seeing Bobby on her TV screen and on the Strictly dance floor. As a big fan of the BBC show, the grandmother was only too happy to learn Bobby would be on the show when the stars of the 2023 season were announced back in August.
She told the Mirror at the time: “I’m over the moon and he’s just stepped in his mum’s shoes — he’s in Jade’s trotters. He’s been born to bring Jade back as himself because he’s the spit of Jade — he’s got his daddy’s head. It will be like watching her on telly.“

Bobby often has to get up before dawn and gets home late at night due to filming commitments on EastEnders, where he has been playing Freddie since 2022.
Jackiey explained: “He has to get up at 5am for EastEnders sometimes, so he’s always on the go. We always text though which is lovely. He likes to keep an eye on his nana, just like Freddie does.”
