Sons to miss Jade funeral

Jade Goody's sons will not attend her funeral on Saturday
Jade Goody's beloved sons, Bobby and Freddie, will not be in attendance at their mum's funeral on Saturday.
The Big Brother star's two sons, aged four and five, must have been deemed too young to deal with the day, which will undoubtedly be a media spectacle.
It's thought that Jade, who lost her battle with cervical cancer on Mother's Day, will draw thousands of well-wishers at her funeral, but the boys' father, Jeff Brazier, has taken them on a holiday to Australia to escape the trauma.
Meanwhile, Michael Jackson has sent his condolences to Goody's mother, Jackiey Budden, and Goody's husband Jack Tweed.
'He sent a message saying Jade was a "very brave girl". He said, "You must be very proud of her and what she achieved, that so many lives will be saved because of her,'" says family spokesman Max Clifford.
'He sent them his condolences and said that he will be sending flowers for the funeral this weekend.'
