As the reality TV star spent her final days drifting in and out of consciousness, Jack Tweed slept on the floor in her room so he could be near her.

Tweed told OK! magazine: "Sometimes Jade would wake up and think she was nursing a baby in her arms."

He added: "She'd tell me to be quiet so I didn't wake the baby. I used to go along with it and pretend to take the baby and call Jackiey (Budden, Goody's mother) in and pretend to give the baby to her.

"I'd then ask Jade whether she was okay and she'd say: 'Yes that's fine, now I can sleep'."

Her last words to him were about pineapples, which were the only food she ate in the days leading up to her death on March 22 - Mother's Day.

Tweed told the magazine Goody had left him nothing in her will, instead bequeathing all her money to her two sons, Bobby and Freddy.

"I never took anything from Jade and I don't want anything from her now," he said. "I just want her. Jade asked me whether I wanted half the money from the wedding, but I said to give it to the boys because I wanted her to know they had a secure future."

On one occasion during her last week, Goody woke up and started singing, Tweed told OK!. "The hardest part was seeing her suffering. I just wanted to make her better. I just want her to be here, I want to go on holiday with her and just muck about with her like we used to do," he said.

Goody's funeral is being held on Saturday.
