Jade Goody may have less than 10 years to live

Reality TV star says doctors have spelt out worst-case scenario if cancer has spread

Jade Goody's ex Jack Tweed was jailed this week for assault

Jade Goody has revealed that she not reach the age of 40 because of her cervical cancer.

The reality TV star will need to undergo further tests to see if the disease has spread – and if it has, her chances of beating the cancer will be dramatically reduced.

Jade, 27, was diagnosed last month and now faces a hysterectomy and intensive chemotherapy.

‘They told me about the worst-case scenario, where I might not even survive 10 years,’ she told a friend, who has spoken to the Daily Mirror. ‘I'm all over the place. I can't stop crying.’

Jade is mum to Bobby Jack, 5, and Freddie, 3. But she always wanted to have more kids.

‘I have now had to give up any hope of having children, but I'm already thinking about adopting,’ she said to her pal.
