Jade Goody's widower Jack Tweed posted a photo remembering his late wife on what would have been their seventh wedding anniversary.

The 29-year-old sadly died from cervical cancer in 2009 a month after marrying Jack Tweed.

Jade rose to fame in 2002 when she entered the Big Brother house for the third series. Initially famous for her lack of general knowledge she made it through to the final week eventually ending up fourth.

After the series that made her famous she continued to stay in the public eye starring in her own reality show and regularly appearing in magazines.

In 2008 after being diagnosed with cervical cancer, she returned early from the Indian version of Big Brother, Bigg Boss.

Although her fight with cancer was short, she raised awareness of cervical cancer after her diagnosis and the effect continued after she passed away, being dubbed the 'Jade Effect'. According to Cancer Research UK since her death many more women have been going for smear tests, where previously it had been an after-thought for many.
