Reality television star Jade Goody has said that she doesn't want to tell her two children that she is suffering from cancer.

The 27-year-old star, who is recovering in a London hospital after having a hysterectomy, told Living TV that she didn't want to frighten her sons, four-year-old Freddie and five-year-old Bobby.

Goody said: "There's no reason in my eyes for me to use the big C word to them or death or anything like that 'cause it's daunting.

"They don't understand it anyway; because they're young I can get away with saying silly things like if I lose my hair I'll tell them I used the wrong shampoo."
