Jade Goody's funeral on April 4

Former 'Big Brother' star Jade Goody, who died on Sunday after a much publicised battle with cervical cancer, will be buried this Saturday.


Goody breathed her last at her Essex home and will be buried in the nearby church on April 4 reported Daily Mirror online, quoting a family spokesman.


Goody, who had left clear instructions for her funeral, wanted it to be a ceremony open for all and a celebration of her short but eventful life.


The funeral procession, which is expected to be attended by thousands, is set to leave her home in Upshire at noon, making its way to St John's Baptist Church via Loughton.

The spokesman added that the details of the service are yet to be finalised. The reality TV star who died at the young age of 27, will be buried following a service at the church in Buckhurst Hill.

Meanwhile Goody's husband, Jack Tweed could be in jail during her funeral as he is to be sentenced on Thursday after being convicted of assaulting a taxi driver under the influence of alcohol.

The 21-year-old who married Goody last month has reportedly asked his lawyers to persuade magistrates to postpone sentencing until after the funeral.
