My thoughts have been with her children for a long time, hopefully they may be allowed to return to some semblance of normality rather than being used for publicity points now.

It's very sad that she's died, but the effect of losing their mother is going to have been magnified by the way it's been handled for those poor children.

oh wait, we all like her now don't we...

We don't speak ill of the dead.

Besides, even if you don't like her, it's not funny when anyone dies, and certainly not in such a drawn out fashion.

Go troll somewhere else.

Those poor kids......

Shame - RIP.

Strange, I felt sympathy for the kids when she was healthy as well.

It isn't strictly true that nobody deserves cancer but she certainly didn't, she was dumb and irritating but ultimately she wasn't an evil person and was harmless if you chose to ignore her.

And we often speak ill of the dead, not sure where you got that idea from :confused:

True, but there's a time and a place.

Who's we?

I found her irritating in RL too, but as you say, she was harmless.

I guessed when I saw this thread, it would start in a bickering or chavish way sooner or later

Not aimed at you, Sweetloaf.

True but I see Jono's point, if people feel genuine sympathy then fair enough but many people will feel nothing. There will be jokes about her surfacing pretty damn quickly I would imagine.

Anyway, I'm not here to antagonize, hypocrites just get under my skin more than they probably should.

It was a very sweeping statement saying that we didn't speak ill of the dead, many people here speak ill of the dead, many dead deserve it. I highly doubt that many on this forum feel genuinely sad about her demise beyond a mere "that's a shame" sentiment.

i hope the children are ok. its hard enough watching your mother die in front of you, but i cant imagine the stress the kids must have been under with all the media attention.

rip

i dont think this thread is about liking her or disliking her

this thread is about recognizing that someone has passed on from this earth and left a family behind who will be devastated.

my thoughts are for her family

Well, to be fair, I would wager you probably speak ill of Saddam, Hitler and quite possibly a huge number of other dead people. As does absolutely every human on the planet, everyone does indeed speak ill of the dead, but usually its only the ones who it is deemed "acceptable".

I have no problems with someone speaking ill of a dead person, as long as that was truly their opinion of the person and they arent just saying it to get a rise out of people.

Terrible day for her to go, Mothers day

Cant help but feel so much for not only her own children, but also her own mother on this of all days. Lets hope the media gives her family room to mourn now, though knowing the media I doubt it.

Hi Fluketsar - I am still banned from motors by the way, looks permanent..

Thanks for cheering up an otherwise sombre thread with some good news.

I never liked the woman but no one so young should die. RIP Jade.

Vonhelmet · 22 Mar 2009 at 09:02

My comment was something of a sweeping generalisation, but it was - as has been said - making the point that no matter how much she irritated you in life, now is not the time to dwell on that.

This Side Up · 22 Mar 2009 at 09:05

I never really liked her, however NO ONE deserves this fate. No one.

I'm glad she has found peace from the past few months of pain. I feel sorry for the kids - growing up without a parent is hard, especially at that age.

RIP.
