JEFF Brazier has shared a sweet tribute to his granddaughter and heaped praise on youngest son Freddy after he became a first time dad.
Freddy, 21, and girlfriend Holly Swinburn welcomed their daughter in March and, despite the on/off nature of their relationship, it seems proud pops Jeff, 46, isn’t losing out on quality time with the tot.
The presenter took to Instagram to post a photo of little Isla Jade, whose name is a sweet nod to Freddy’s mum the late Jade Goody, taking a nap on his chest.
Jeff wrote: “I don’t know that I could love her more.
“A weekend to celebrate our special girl and her Mum and Dad who are doing a great job. She’s perfect.”
Hunky Jeff was keen to prove he’s still got it after becoming a grandad in his forties, stripping off to his pants and poking fun at the new title recently.
He joked: “Get dressed with Grandad??!!”
And his words of praise for Freddy and Holly come after The Sun revealed Freddy and Holly are in a “solid place” after the new dad “stepped up”.
An insider said: “Freddy and Holly are in a really solid place right now, they’ve taken the time to work through things properly rather than rush it.
“They’ve had their ups and downs, but that’s actually brought them closer, they understand each other a lot better now.
“There’s a real sense they’re stronger as a couple this time around, more grounded and more focused on what matters.”
They continued: “They’ve both made an effort to communicate better and not let small issues spiral into bigger problems.
“Freddy has really stepped up recently, and Holly has seen that change in him which has helped rebuild trust.”
Our source added: “Those around them feel like they’re more united now, especially with everything going on in their lives.
“It’s less about proving anything to anyone and more about quietly making it work this time.”
