JODIE Marsh shared a tearful video as she broke her silence after a fire on her farm killed two of her beloved animals.
The star turned her back on fame to run Fripps Farm in Essex where she cares for an abundance of animals.
But in heartbreaking news, a fire took hold over the weekend causing the deaths of two of Jodie’s marmosets.
The former model has revealed she will be moving “far far away” following the incident, which also saw her lose her valuables.
She said: “I’ve given up my whole life for them, and those babies meant everything to me.
“I am so broken, so broken.
“I don’t care about my house being destroyed. I have lost everything that’s valuable to me – but I don’t care.
“The only thing I care about is that I lost two baby marmosets, and the reason I had them in the bedroom is because their mum died giving birth, and I had to take them and hand rear them.
“They meant everything to me.
“That’s the biggest loss for me.”
This [her property] is just stuff that can be replaced. The babies dying, has broken me beyond belief. Because I do everything for these animals.”
An emotional Jodie said she now plans to start afresh after the tragic loss.
“I will be going far, far away. I don’t care about my house being destroyed, all I care about is losing two marmosets,” she tearfully said.
The two animals died after a fire broke out on the first floor of the farm, according to reports.
Essex County Fire and Rescue Service raced to the scene shortly before 5pm on Saturday afternoon.
A spokesperson for Essex County Fire and Rescue Service said: “Firefighters were called at 4.56pm to a fire in Lindsell, Dunmow.
“On arrival, the property was full of smoke and crews discovered a fire in the upstairs bedroom.
“Crews worked hard to extinguish the fire and stop it from spreading.
“The cause of the fire has been recorded as accidental, started by an electrical item.”
Fripps Farm is located just north of Dunmow in the North Essex countryside and Jodie has become known for housing many rescued animals at the five acre property.
Just some of the animals that Josie cares for include emus, alpacas, pigs, llamas, goats, deer, sheep and cows.
Fripps Farm hasn’t been without its controversies amid neighbour rows and court battles.
In June of this year, she was left in tears of joy after winning a court battle to keep lemurs at the sanctuary.
She had appealed against a council’s decision to refuse her application for a wild animal licence.
Concerns had been raised about her taking a meerkat to the pub.
Former glamour model Marsh, 46, said trolls were behind much of the criticism.
At a previous hearing, clips of screeching zoo lemurs were played to Chelmsford magistrates’ court.
But Judge Christopher Williams dismissed the council’s argument about the animals’ noise.
