Jade Goody mum: 'We laugh, we cry'

Jade Goody's mother Jackiey Budden has spoken about the emotional turmoil at the reality TV star's bedside as she succumbs to terminal cancer.

Budden has been at Goody's bedside in recent days after she returned to her Essex home from hospital, The Sun reports.

Of her time spent with Goody, Budden said: "We laugh, we cry, we laugh, we cry."

Budden reportedly took a short break from looking after her daughter to visit a beauty salon for a fake tan treatment.

"I'm feeling better now I'm brown," Budden is said to have told a woman who handed her flowers on her return.

Goody's son Bobby was taken to the house to visit his mother after repeatedly questioning why he could not see her.

A family friend said: "Bobby is just old enough now to understand he doesn't have long with mummy.

"He has been asking why they are not staying at the house with her and he just wants to see his mum."
