As the son of TV presenter Jeff Brazier and the late reality star Jade Goody, Bobby Brazier became a household name at a very young age. He was just five years old when his mum tragically died of cervical cancer in 2009, and after her death Jeff decided to take him and his younger brother Freddy out of the spotlight.
But now, at 20 years old, he's followed in his parents' famous footsteps and has made a career for himself in the showbiz world after being scouted by a modelling agent at the age of 15. From walking the runway for Dolce & Gabbana to bagging a role on EastEnders, Bobby has already achieved a lot in his short life. And now he's taking on potentially his biggest challenge yet, as he joins the cast of Strictly Come Dancing.
Bobby had a turbulent time at school, admitting, 'I used to be a little s**t and stuck in my ways. Heard the same things [a] hundred times and nearly got kicked out of school before I realised I was being a wally. But in a bizarre twist of fate, it was actually getting into trouble at school that got him into modelling.
