Father's Day is a special time for any dad - it's a way to celebrate them and pay thanks for all they do for their family. But for dad-of-two Jeff Brazier, it doesn't need to be about fancy presents or gifts, and instead should focus on 'consistency'.
In a chat with OK!, the TV presenter who is dad to Bobby, 21, and Freddie, 19, joked that he'd much rather his boys picked up their washing every day than go above and beyond for just 24 hours. Jeff, 45, explained: "I like receiving cards from them.
That’s all I care about! Every day is Father’s Day to me really.
I know my kids appreciate me. I don’t need a big banner or a full-blown effort on one day and then they go back to leaving their washing on the floor – I’m looking for a bit of consistency here." The star - who shared his kids with ex-partner Jade Goody who passed away in 2009 to cervical cancer - also acknowledged that Father's Day isn't a time that's easy for everyone.
Jeff said: "I’ve got a walk with my walking initiative Grateful Strides that day for people who have lost dads, so I can help them focus on their memories." It's no secret that Jeff and his two sons share an unbreakable bond and when EastEnders star Bobby danced his way to the Strictly Come Dancing final in 2023, it was clear to see his biggest supporter was his dad. Following Bobby's emotional Strictly dance tribute to Jade, the dad of two broke down in tears and later penned a moving message on Instagram.
