Jeff Brazier Splits from Wife Kate Dwyer Amid Family Struggles and Son’s Addiction Issues Before Welcoming First Child

Jeff Brazier Splits from Wife Kate Dwyer Amid Family Struggles and Son’s Addiction Issues Before Welcoming First Child

Jeff Brazier has reportedly split from wife Kate Dwyer following their ‘year from hell’ with his youngest child Freddy – after previously splitting in late 2022 before reconciling seven months later.  

The 21-year-old son of the TV presenter, 46, and late Big Brother star Jade Goody recently patched things up with his father following a bitter family feud, which saw Jeff considering taking legal action in an attempt to block access between his son and maternal grandmother Jackiey Budden, in a bid to ‘keep him safe’.

Freddy, who is expecting his first child with on/off girlfriend Holly Swinburn, claimed Jackiey got him hooked on drugs, before appearing to reveal he had tragically ‘tried to end it all’ by ‘crashing his car’ in the middle of a ‘manic episode.’

Now according to reports PR guru Kate, 35, moved out of the martial home three weeks ago with Jeff hinting on social media that his seven-year marriage was over.

He was said to have shared snaps from new countryside property as he detailed the ‘transitional time’ in his life and how he was ‘living in calm’.

Jeff, who is also father son Bobby, 22, was then seen without his wedding ring while reporting from Reykjavik on Monday’s GMB, while Kate too reportedly ditched her band after heading to Las Vegas for the Grand Prix.

According to The Sun Kate has returned to her flat in Hackney after growing apart from Jeff amid Freddy’s struggles.  

Daily Mail have contacted Jeff’s representatives for comment. 

In June amid the family feud Freddy appeared to take a swipe at Kate as he listed things he hates with ‘step parents’ being one of them. 

Last year the publicist admitted she ‘felt like a failure’ in her marriage to Jeff before realising every couple has their struggles, following their reconciliation. 

She gave her thoughts on marriage after being asked by a follower for advice on how to get theirs back on track.

She replied: ‘I think we are all guilty of portraying only the good bits on social media. Anyone who says marriage and raising kids is easy is lying in my opinion. I felt like such a failure until I realised everyone has their struggles.

‘I would never share the details of our relationship, but the one thing I am grateful for is that my husband is just as willing ti put the work into himself and the relationship as I am. You can’t ask for anything more than that.’ 

Freddy revealed in August that he would be welcoming his first child and vowed to turn his life around and patched up his relationship with his father.

The influencer sadly lost his mother, Jade, when he was just four years old after she died from cervical cancer on Mother’s Day in 2009.

Jade’s mother Jackiey helped raise Bobby and Freddy following Jade’s death, but she and Jeff have clashed multiple times over the years.

More recently, Freddy confessed to starving himself and replacing food with green, which is a street name for the drug cannabis.

Alongside a photo of his grandmother Jackiey, he wrote: ‘Prioritised my relationship with my mum’s mum not knowing she has been lying to me for years!’

Freddy included a video of himself walking along a street in a dressing gown, following by a short clip of an ambulance with the caption: ‘Had episode after episode. Til I got sectioned and spent my 18th in a psychiatric ward.’

Over the weekend, Freddy has appeared to reveal he tragically ‘tried to end it all’ over two years ago by ‘crashing his car’ in the middle of a ‘manic episode.’

He took to TikTok to bravely share a video explaining his heartbreaking journey, with a generated voiceover in the video sharing the extent of the model’s mental health struggles.

In the video, Freddy told his followers that he spent his 18th birthday ‘in a psychiatric ward,’ but realised after that ‘something needed to change.’

The video began with a generated voiceover that said: ‘2.5 years ago after crashing a car in a manic episode in an attempt to end it all.’

He captioned the post: ‘2.5 years ago now, I’m f*****g proud of myself and I can’t wait to tell my story.’ 

Showing how he realised he had to change his habits, he then wrote: ‘Something clicked in my head needed to change! Started getting out more.’

He added that he then decided to start ‘eating better,’ and focused on his close circle of friends and prioritising ‘self-love.’ 

The video then showed images of himself attending events, training in the gym and eating salads for lunch, along with the words: ‘Eating better. Time away from London. Bit of training. Small circle. My doggo. Skincare and self love.’

Earlier this year, Jeff considered taking action in an attempt to legally block contact between his son Freddy and his grandmother, ‘to keep him safe’.

However, the pair appear to have mended their relationship and Jeff publicly wished his son a Happy Birthday in September, stating he would always be there for him.

In a preview for his own Load Of Old Cobblers podcast, Freddy admitted: ‘I’ve been smoking since I was 12, l’ve been to rehab, I’ve been sectioned, l’ve had manic episodes, l’ve been sectioned.

‘There’s been a real journey and it’s been a tough one.’
