Jade Goody recovering after surgery
Jade Goody is recovering in hospital following surgery to relieve pain in her bowel.
The 27-year-old reality TV star, who has terminal cancer, was operated on at London's Chelsea and Westminster Hospital after being plagued with crippling stomach pains.
Her spokesman, Max Clifford, said the operation was vital as it could help improve her quality of life.
Speaking before the op, he said: "Hopefully the operation will relieve the pain and pressure she has been experiencing in her bowel.
"This operation is important because if successful it could alleviate the worst of the pain she's been experiencing. She will be able to start eating again and it will give her more quality of life and more quality of time."
Max said Jade desperately wanted to return home to spend her remaining time with new husband Jack Tweed and her two sons, Bobby, five, and Freddie, four.
He added: "She's very sedated at the moment, she just hopes the operation goes well so she can get home and enjoy some quality time with her family."
