Jack Tweed, the widower of Big Brother star Jade Goody, has been disqualified from driving for 12 months. He admitted to one charge of driving a motor vehicle with a specified controlled drug above the legal limit at Chelmsford Magistrates' Court on Monday.
Tweed was stopped on Three Mile Hill, near Chelmsford in Essex, on 6 December 2025. He was arrested after failing a roadside drug swipe.
A subsequent blood sample recorded 5.6 micrograms of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, the main active component of cannabis, in his system. This exceeded the legal limit of two micrograms.
Tweed, 39, apologised to the court, stating he had taken the drug the night before to help him sleep due to depression and anxiety. He was fined £692 and ordered to pay a surcharge of £277 and costs of £85.
