Jack TweedJade Goody’s new husband Jack Tweed has been found guilty of assault for the second time in six months.

Jack was accused threatening and assaulting a taxi driver on the way home from a club in Essex in May last year. Jack is said to have grabbed cabby Stephen Wilkins by the throat and refused to pay the fare after taking the taxi home with a male friend and two girls.

Wilkins told the court yesterday that Jack “pulled his arm around my neck and held it against the headrest.

“He was leaning over me, over the back seat, with his face alongside my face, screaming, ‘I will stab you, you f***ing c***’.

“He yanked the handbrake up. He was being so aggressive, his spit was flying into my face.

“It was a very dangerous situation and I was scared.”

Jack, who said he had no memory of the incident, was found guilty of assault at Epping Magistrates’ Court this afternoon but given Jade’s terminal cancer, he has been released on unconditional bail until sentencing on 26th March.

Last September, Jack was sentenced to 21 months in jail following an assault of a teenager with a golf club in 2006. He was released on parole in January after just four months of his sentence but must obey a strict curfew, limiting him to his mum’s house in Buckhurst Hill, Essex between the hours of 7pm-7am every day.

Last month, Jade was told by doctors that there was nothing more they could do to slow the progress of her cancer and she is thought to have just weeks to live.
