Jackiey Budden finally got to watch grandson Bobby Brazier perform on the Strictly Come Dancing tour.
Jade Goody’s mum was said to be banned from attending the BBC dancing show’s final, where Bobby was beaten to the top spot by Ellie Leach, amid her ongoing feud with his father Jeff Brazier.
Jackiey, 66, looked to be in high spirits as she arrived at the Utilita Stadium alone and was seen wiping tears from her eyes as she sat in the audience.
She arrived at the Strictly show in a faux fur coat as she braved the cold and opted to bring along her very own paddle board which had ten points etched on the front.
Jackiey put on an animated display as she was seen cheering and applauding her grandson and at one point was seen wiping her eyes as she got emotional.
She later got to her feet as she applauded and waved wildly at the stage following her grandson’s performance.
Speaking about Bobby in December, Jackiey told MailOnline: “I’m very, very proud of Bobby. 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.”
Her comments come amid reports of an ongoing feud with Bobby’s dad Jeff Brazier, whom she is said to have fallen out with several years ago.
She remains on good terms with her grandsons Bobby, 20 and his younger brother Freddie, 19.
Jackiey’s daughter Jade shot to fame on the third series of the hit show Big Brother but tragically died from cervical cancer in 2009 aged just 27.
In September, Jackiey secretly got tickets to the National Television Awards to watch Bobby get a Rising Star gong for playing Freddie Slater in EastEnders.
In 2021 Bobby revealed he was back in touch with Jackiey after they lost contact.
Speaking to his fans on Instagram, he said: “I didn’t see her for ages – for way too long – but I went to see her twice recently.
“And honestly if there’s one woman you shouldn’t underestimate it’s my nan. Honestly, she’s like a wizard! It’s nuts.”
