‘Biggest insecurity’: Jade Goody’s model son Bobby Brazier has spoken about how his past trauma made it hard for him to let go of relationships during an Instagram Q and A on Thursday

One follower asked the teenager: ‘What is your biggest insecurity?’

Bobby replied: ‘I dunno to be honest. I know that because of past trauma I find it hard letting go of something even if I don’t want it no more, especially when it comes to relationships’.  

The model also spoke about how he has matured over the years. When asked how to ‘motivative a kid to being better’, Bobby said: ‘A lot of it has to do with when they personally grow up.

‘I used to be a little *poo emoji* and stuck in my ways. I didn’t want to head no different from no one. 

‘Heard the same things hundred times and nearly got kicked out of school before I realised I was being a wally.’

And it seems Bobby has had his fair share of heartache as he added ‘girls bring out the worst in me’ in another story.

Bobby, who lives with his father Jeff, 41, brother Freddie, 16, and stepmother Kate, previously told The Sun how he believes mum Jade ‘would love’ him ‘trying my best to make something of my life’ after carving out a career as a model. 

He said: ‘Like every boy, you want to think your mum would be proud of you.

‘I hope she’s looking down on me and smiling, probably laughing, thinking, “Look at Bobby lying in a field in his designer gear”.

Jade sent shockwaves around the world in 2008 when she was informed live on Indian Big Brother, Bigg Boss, that she was suffering with Cervical Cancer, before she discovered the following year that she was terminal. 

She then passed away in March, one month after marrying Jack Tweed.

Bobby’s dad Jeff has become an advocate for mental health and grief survival for not only his two boys to others, even releasing the book The Grief Survival Guide: How to Navigate Loss and All that Comes With It in 2017.
