Sons of BB's Goody 'bound for Australia'

Jade Goody's young sons will fly to Australia to escape the sadness of next
weekend's funeral for the British reality TV star, who died a week ago after
suffering from cancer, a British newspaper reported on Sunday.

Bobby, five, and Freddie, four, will leave on Monday with their father, TV presenter
Jeff Brazier, to visit the Gold Coast and see close friends in Melbourne, the News
of the World reported on Sunday.
"To say the boys are excited is the understatement of the year," the tabloid quoted
an un-named friend of Brazier as saying.
"They keep saying: `Daddy, when are we going, when can we see the kangaroos?'
"Jeff knows how much they loved their mother but he feels they need to get right
away from the media glare. You can't get much further away than Australia."
The move was in line with Goody's dying wish and, according to the friend, Brazier
said the argument for taking the boys away from the funeral and allowing them to
"remember their mum as she was" outweighed the reasons to attend.
Goody's funeral will be held at a church near her home in Essex, south-east England,
on April 4.
The 27-year-old died on March 22 after suffering from cervical cancer, which spread.
She welcomed extensive media coverage of her battle with the illness, having shot to
fame in 2002 when she appeared as a contestant on the third series of Britain's Big
Brother reality TV show.
Goody sparked outrage around the world over her treatment of Indian movie star
Shilpa Shetty when the pair appeared on Celebrity Big Brother in 2007.
Goody was branded a racist bully for comments she made about the Bollywood star, but
later apologised and the pair became friends.
