Jade Goody has reportedly left each of her sons £2m - and nothing to husband Jack Tweed. The reality TV star, who died of cervical cancer on Sunday, set up a trust fund for Bobby, five, and four-year-old Freddie, to ensure they are financially set for life.

Grief: Tweed is said to have refused Jade's home

This will include future school fees, after Goody said she wanted to give them the education she never had. The 27-year-old told the boys' father, Jeff Brazier, 29, he would not need to worry about money as long as he provided them with a home.

Loving memory: Goody with husband Jack Tweed

Before she died, Goody said: "Everything I have, my houses, my money, is going to my sons. I always wanted my family to have what I never could, no matter what it might cost." She reportedly offered Tweed, 21, who she married last month, her home in Upshire, Essex but he turned it down, telling her he wouldn't be able to live there without her.

The £1m home was instead left to Goody's mother, Jackiey Budden, 51.

But although Tweed has been left with nothing, he said he will always honour his late wife's memory.

Goody also gave £100,000 to charities in India dedicated to caring for children in poverty. At one school there, a shrine was put up for her.

Tweed's sentencing for assault, which was due tomorrow, has been postponed so he can attend her funeral on 4 April.
