While Freddy Brazier and his father, Jeff Brazier, have experienced their ups and downs, Jeff will now guide the father-son duo through fatherhood.
Following reports that Freddy Brazier is soon going to enter fatherhood after his ex-girlfriend has fallen pregnant, a source has revealed Jeff’s reaction to becoming a grandfather and how he has been in close contact with Freddy since the news broke.
The brief romance between Freddy, 20, and the child’s mother is believed to have ended on difficult terms, but Freddy is said to be receiving full support from Jeff, a parenting coach and This Morning regular, as well as other close family and friends.
While Freddy is now spending more time at home with his father and his wife Kate in Essex, a close source revealed to The Daily Mail that they hope the news of fatherhood on the horizon helps him ‘get his act together and grow up’.
According to the source, “Freddy claims he wants to get his own place but isn’t working and doesn’t have access to the money his mother left him until he’s in his mid-20s; that means he’d have to figure out how to pay his own rent.”
He hasn’t done any TV work in a while and his modeling career hasn’t developed as he had hoped, but he will have to do something if he wants to become a father soon.

Freddie has been in “close contact” with Freddy and Jeff despite their ups and downs, according to the source, who has been informed of the baby’s birth.
They continued, “He has been taking Jeff’s advice and has kept in touch with him since.” Freddy was unsure that he would become a father, and he needed some assistance navigating it. Jeff has done a fantastic job for him and is a huge help to him.
Additionally, it is reported that Jeff wants to meet the girl’s family so they can “deal with this together,” as Freddie also wants to conduct DNA testing to prove the child’s identity before getting any further involved.
The world was able to witness the father-son relationship of Freddie and Jeff when they starred in the reality show, Celebrity Race Across The World, where cameras followed them as they navigated their differences.
Freddy and his older brother Bobby, 22, were raised by Jeff from a young age after their mum Jade passed away from cervical cancer in 2009. The brothers have gone in different directions as they have grown up, with Bobby going on to act in EastEnders and Freddy turning to drugs.
Freddy stated in a snippet from his new podcast, which will be available this week that “I’ve been smoking since I was 12,” that “I’ve been to rehab, I’ve been sectioned, and I’ve had manic episodes.” A real journey has been taken, and it has been challenging.
Freddy stated in June that he wanted to be clean and that he wanted to heal family relationships. He previously stated, “I want to be happy, be in a good relationship, and have a good relationship with my father and my Nana.”
