Freddy Brazier has reportedly been spotted ‘smoking a joint’ with grandmother Jackiey Budden after his father Jeff Brazier ‘launched legal action to keep them apart.’

It was previously reported that the TV presenter, 45, had taken action to ‘legally block contact’ between his son and his maternal grandmother Jackiey Budden, 68, the mother of Jade Goody, who died in 2009 of cervical cancer.

Jeff shares sons Bobby, 21, and Freddy, 20, with the late Big Brother star, but has reportedly clashed with his youngest child over their grandmother amid a rumoured feud between the pair.

Photos obtained by The Sun reportedly show Freddy and Jackiey ‘smoking marijuana together’ in South London, despite his dad’s concerns.

The publication also reports Jeff has a court date to stop Freddy seeing Jackiey, with a source revealing: ‘These pictures show exactly why Jeff is so worried about his son.

‘Jackiey’s influence over Freddy is harmful to his overall well-being. It’s very sad that a grandmother would want to encourage her grandson to do something that could potentially be so damaging.’

Mail Online reported that Freddy has been living with Jackiey in her home in Bermondsley for a week amid legal proceedings.

An inside said: ‘Jeff was never going to keep Freddy away from his Nanny for very long – they’ve always had a strong bond.

‘Jeff may hate her for all sorts of reasons going back many years, but Freddy loves her very much.

‘They had a great time together, playing with her dog and catching up at her flat – where he has often stayed over the years.

‘Whatever Jeff hoped to achieve with his legal efforts, it hasn’t worked.’

A source previously claimed that Jeff is seeking legal action as he believes Freddy and Jackiey’s relationship is ‘incredibly detrimental’ to his son.

‘This is something Jeff and anyone who cares about Freddy hopes will help keep Freddy safe from a relationship that has been incredibly detrimental to his wellbeing for a long time now,’ they said.

‘The fact that he is going down this route shows how concerned we all our and how our efforts to keep Fred safe are being grossly undermined by other people.’

Jackiey previously launched a foul-mouthed rant about Jeff when speaking to Mail Online, calling him a ‘c**t’ several times.

‘I know what this is all about. It (the situation with Jeff) doesn’t matter. It doesn’t matter,’ she continued.

‘Do I want to see Freddy? Of course I do. I see Freddy all of the time. I will see him.’

Speaking to the publication, one of her neighbours added: ‘I feel sorry for Jackiey. She’s been through so much. It’s a complex situation. I just hope they can be all together again as a family. Her grandchildren mean the world to her.

‘How did it come to this that lawyers are apparently involved? She wants to be the best gran she can be to those boys.’

It has been claimed that Freddy and Jeff are locked in a ‘secret feud’, with arguments between the pair causing Freddy to ‘storm out’ of their home to stay with Jackiey until it blows over.

While appearing on Celebrity Race Across The World, Jeff admitted Freddy ‘isn’t at home loads.’

Speaking about his relationship with his dad, Freddy said on the show: ‘At times where I’ve pushed him away he has pulled even harder to pull me back in.

‘I don’t think I praise my dad enough for everything he has done for me but he knows the love.’

Metro has contacted representatives for Freddy Brazier and Jeff Brazier for comment.
