Freddy Brazier entering rehab to have a 'healthy relationship' with dad Jeff
Freddy Brazier has shared that he's going into rehab due to becoming 'addicted' to smoking.
The 20-year-old is the youngest of Jeff Brazier's two sons. He also has 22-year-old Strictly Come Dancing star Bobby Brazier, whom he shares with the late Jade Goody.
Freddy, who was just four years old when his mum died from cancer aged 27, was recently photographed allegedly 'smoking a joint' with his grandmother, Jackiey Budden, after his father 'launched legal action' to keep the pair apart.
Now, in an attempt to rebuild his relationship with Jeff, Freddy will be seeking treatment in Spain.
Taking to his Instagram Story with a lengthy message, he admitted to starting to smoke at the age of 12.
'I've decided that I will be cutting down And I want to go to Rehab In Marbs as I feel if I'm in England I won't take getting clean seriously,' he began.
'I've been smoking from the age of 12 and it's time to stop it was a bad coping mechanism that turnt into an addiction something I relied on and something that made me feel sane and some what ok.
'I've found a boxing club a rehabilitation centre and a boxing club I've found someone I want to get to know and I'm happy I got a good bunch of friends and I get out and enjoy myself.
'I want to be clean so I can life happily and have healthy relationships with people and be there for all of my family rather then feeling like I'm in the middle and have to choose a side.'
He continued: 'I haven't been able to feel love properly as I have never loved myself and it starts now I want to play football and take up boxing I want to be happy and be in a healthy relationship and have a healthy relationship with my Nana and my father'.
The youngster concluded: 'Desire everything that is going in new story about me my Nana and father every day ffs it's getting boring now [sic]'.
'Mind your business and have a good rest of the week x', he signed off.
Freddy's post comes just days after it emerged that he was living with his nan in her Bermondsey home. More Trending
A source told the Daily Mail that Freddy and Jackiey have 'always had a strong bond,' hence 'Jeff was never going to keep Freddy away from his nanny for very long'.
'Jeff may hate her for all sorts of reasons going back many years, but Freddy loves her very much,' added the insider.
'They had a great time together, playing with her dog and catching up at her flat, where he has often stayed over the years.
'Whatever Jeff hoped to achieve with his legal efforts, it hasn't worked.'

'Devastated' Rod Stewart, 80, cancels concerts weeks before Glastonbury
Rod Stewart has described himself as 'devastated' after being forced to cancel a series of US concerts ahead of his Glastonbury set this month. The 80-year-old singer is scheduled to play at the iconic UK festival later this month, in its Sunday tea-time legends slot. However, the Maggie May singer has revealed that six more of his shows in the United States have had to be cancelled or rescheduled due to his falling ill. This comes after he was forced to cancel two shows in Las Vegas for the same reason. 'I have to cancel and reschedule my next six concerts in June as I continue to recover from the flu,' he wrote on Instagram on Saturday. 'So sorry my friends. I'm devastated and sincerely apologise for any inconvenience to my fans. I'll be back on stage and will see you soon.' He signed off the post with a heartbreak emoji, next to his title as Knight of the Realm – Sir Rod. More Trending The following picture includes a list of the four cancelled shows in Las Vegas and Nevada, as well as two which will be rescheduled. This will come as particularly worrying news to those who had hoped to see Sir Rod perform at this year's Glastonbury on Sunday, June 29.

Stephen Graham had emergency operation on a plane to the US
Stephen Graham may be known for his intense on-screen performances, but his recent appearance on Late Night with Seth Meyers showcased a very different side of the acclaimed British actor. A story the Adolescence star, 51, told on the show has gone viral online for good reason: It involves mid-air panic, unexpected medical heroics, and the actor 'dropping his kecks.' Prompted by Meyers' question about a particularly eventful journey to the United States, the A Thousand Blows star chuckled and admitted it had been 'a hell of an experience.' 'I'm of a certain age now,' Graham began. 'You know, once you hit 45, the trips to the loo start to rack up.' That complaint led the actor to seek a medical solution months prior – a non-invasive procedure designed to reduce frequent urination by slightly enlarging the prostate, often aided by a catheter. For a while, everything had been fine. That is, until Graham found himself at 10,000 feet and suddenly unable to urinate. 'It just didn't feel right,' he recalled. He returned to his seat and downed more water, hoping it would work itself out. But the next time he visited the toilet, things took a frightening turn. 'Long story short, I went, but it was just pure blood,' he said. 'It was very scary. I couldn't stop this trajectory of blood and I'm having a slight panic attack. I'm about to cry and I'm having a moment,' Graham added. Earlier that day, Graham had posed for a selfie at the gate with a fan, who, as luck would have it, was a doctor. Even better? The doctor's travel companion was a surgeon. Once the severity of Graham's situation became clear, the cabin crew sprang into action. 'Next minute, the doctor comes around the corner and goes, 'Stephen!' and I'm like, 'Doc! Hello!'' What happened next could rival the drama of any Graham-led series. The space between economy and first class was hastily converted into an operating bay. Curtains were drawn, medical kits opened, and the lounge area sterilized. More Trending 'I dropped me kecks, got on the couch, and they performed a catheter procedure right there,' Graham said. The cause? A blood clot that had lodged behind his urethra. But once it was removed, Graham described the relief in the most Graham way possible: 'It was one of the nicest experiences with me and my penis,' he quipped, grinning. 'I came running out like a kid who'd just learned to use the toilet.' He also made sure to commemorate the surreal incident: 'We took a photo at the end, me, the doctors, and the flight crew. Wonderful people.' What could have been a nightmare turned into a memorable, oddly uplifting tale of mid-air humanity – and one more reason fans continue to love Stephen Graham. Got a story?

Katie Price's fury at exes who she blames for bankruptcy despite huge splurging
Former glamour model Katie Price, 47, believes that her tumultuous six years of financial woes are all down to one reason - the men in her life Katie Price was declared bankrupt for a second time in March of this year, with a significant tax debt of over £750,000 cleared. However, the former glamour model, 47, believes that her tumultuous six years of financial woes are all down to one reason - the men in her life. Speaking back in March, she lashed out at her exes, claiming they "mentally abused her" and that she "wouldn't be tormented in [her] brain" if they hadn't been around. She said: "If men had not been in my life, I wouldn't be in the bankruptcy things that I've been in. I wouldn't be tormented in my brain or mentally abused like I have been." Katie also revealed she believes she may have started glamour modelling due to the problems she has had with men. She told Elizabeth Day's How to Fail podcast: "Because it's like, you can look at me in a magazine but you cant touch me. I have therapy all because of men." The mum-of-five added that she had PTSD, which she claimed was caused by men, but has now learned that 'opening up the lines of communication' is the 'best way forward'. The Pricey has had a complicated love life, having been married three times and engaged four. After getting divorced from Peter Andre, Alex Reid and Kieran Hayler, her latest break-up was with on/off fiancé, Carl Woods - before she moved on to her current partner, Married At First Sight star, JJ Slater. Yet, Katie's love of plastic surgery has left fans concerned over the last decade - and not just because of the potential medical implications. She has had at least 16 boob jobs and most recently underwent surgery in a bid to have the 'largest boobs in Britain'. Katie is also an avid fan of fillers - having had injections in her lips and face to plump up her pout and smooth out her features. Earlier this year, she showed off her new lips and new buttocks after having it plumped up. The costs of the tweaks were revealed, with the recent procedures pushing the amount she has spent changing her body to £130,000. In January, the Daily Mail claimed the star had spent £84,000 on changing the size of her breasts alone - while she has also had liposuction and Botox as well as other procedures. Katie had work done with Life Aesthetics - a company which offers Brazilian bum lifts starting from £1,700. She also showed off the results of a Butterfly Lip injection - which reconstructed the shape of her lips so the top lip is puffed up and back to show off her teeth. The procedure costs from £550. Last year, Katie went on many holidays and treated herself to tattoos and beach activities. She enjoyed a sunny getaway in Spain and also travelled to Thailand to top up her tap. She sometimes went with some of her children and even had her ex-fiancé Carl Woods tag along on several beachside getaways. While she's at home in the UK, she's busy with her mansion and cars. Katie was banned from driving following an accident near her home in Sussex in September 2021. She flipped her car BMW X5 during the crash and was handed a 16-week prison sentence suspended for 12 months, a two-year driving ban and 100 hours of community service after admitting to drink driving while disqualified and without insurance. However, the ban was lifted early last year and she celebrated by treating herself to a set of new wheels, reportedly worth £50,000. Katie - who is mum to son Harvey, 22, with Dwight Yorke, Junior, 19, and Princess, 17, with ex-husband Peter Andre, and son Jett, 11, and daughter Bunny, 10, from her third marriage to Kieran Hayler - also recently opened up about the astonishing amount she spends on her weekly food shop. Opening up about her spending habits on her podcast The Katie Price Show, the proud mum said: "I do weekly shops, I spend about £500-£700 a week. "Sometimes we all go [to the shops]. I hate it because I say to them, we all get a trolley each, and Princess and Ed fill theirs up whereas Junior and Jasmine are careful with what they put in. They look at the prices and stuff and I just put everything in."
