It has been nearly 10 years since Jade Goody tied the knot with Jack Tweed one month before she tragically lost her life to cervical cancer. Goody married her partner of four years in a very emotional ceremony on February 22, 2009. 

It was just a month later Jade passed away on March 22, 2009. At the time she spoke to OK! magazine and as reported by the Mirror she said, "I've had the happiest day of my life. Now I'm ready to go to heaven." The publication reportedly paid Tweed around £1million for access to their special day. The ceremony was also broadcasted on the TV channel Living and became a day none would forget.
