FREDDY Brazier’s pregnant ex has revealed that she is expecting a girl and they are going to name her after his late mum Jade Goody.
Holly Swinburn said she and Freddy are still apart but are communicating for the sake of the baby — which is due at the end of March.
In an exclusive interview, Holly, 22, said: “I’m so excited to be having a baby girl.
“We like the idea of Jade as a middle name. I told Freddy I would happily call the baby Jade as a first name if that’s what he wanted.
“But I think he felt it might come with too much expectation, pressure and comparisons.
“I love Isla as a first name and we think it’d be nice to honour Jade’s memory with a middle name.” Sharing ultrasound scan pics, she added: “Freddy and I are pleased we’re having a girl, he’s been to scans with me.”

Big Brother star Jade died from cervical cancer aged 27 in 2009 — when Freddie, 21, was four and his brother Bobby was five.
Holly is grateful to Freddy’s TV presenter dad Jeff, 46, for encouraging them to prepare for parenthood.
Freddy has moved out of his maternal nan Jackiey Budden’s house, and is staying with his dad in Essex.
Holly said: “Freddy and I spent time at Jeff’s before Christmas and he sat us down to prepare for when the baby arrives.
“Jeff is a big help to us and is very generous.”
Holly split from Freddy in November after accusing him of partying with girls and smoking cannabis in her home while she was on holiday.
They also argued over their pet bully dog Pablo.
She said: “I am hoping we can stay as civil as possible and he has apologised to my mum for being mean to me, but it will take some time.”
Speaking in October, Freddy admitted he would love to call the baby after his mum Jade.
It comes after The Sun on Sunday revealed Jeff attempted to take Jackiey to court to stop Freddy seeing her.
