Big Brother star Jade Goody has reportedly struck up an unlikely friendship with Prince Azim of Brunei.

Azim, who is set to inherit a share of his father’s £20billion fortune, has been spotted with the former reality TV star and her fiance Jack Tweed around London over the last few weeks and Jade claims he’s given her a diamond ring worth around £3million.

She told the Daily Mail recently: “I have become quite friendly with the Prince of Brunei. He wanted to meet me, we met and got on like a house on fire. He gave me a ring and it is huge, full of diamonds.”

“He said, ‘Take this’; I was like, ‘I can’t’. I haven’t got it valued yet but he had one that was very similar and that is worth £3million.”

“We go round to his house, he’s wicked. I have met so many people through him like Johnny Depp and Mariah Carey.”

Azim, who is fourth in line to the Brunei throne, also has entertainment connections in America and Jade claims he’s helping her set up some work in the US.

She added: “The prince is just an amazing friend. We go round to his house, he’s wicked. I have met so many people through him like Johnny Depp and Mariah Carey.

“So now I am going to America with someone who looks after Will Smith and Halle Berry and they have taken a real interest in me and I have got a lot of work lined up in America.”
