Jade Goody will reportedly begin treatment for
cervical cancer as early as next week.
The reality star, who returned to the UK on Tuesday, was told she had the life-threatening disease on the Indian version of
Big Brother.
Yesterday she visited her consultant at the
Princess Alexandra Hospital in Essex.
Her ex-boyfriend
Jack Tweed, 21, accompanied
Jade, 27, to the clinic.
He has been comforting her since she flew back to Britain and was seen returning with her to her home yesterday.
'She looked extremely upset and was crying,' an onlooker tells The Sun. 'She didn't say anything and seemed a bit dazed.'
Her children
Bobby, 5, and
Freddie, 3, are being cared for by family and friends.
'Jack is at home with Jade and supporting her at the moment, but they are not currently in a relationship,' says her spokeswoman
Lucy Heather.
