Freddy Brazier has revealed he had booked an impromptu trip to Ibiza on Instagram on Tuesday but while travelling to the airport, it went horribly wrong. Documenting his journey to Stansted Airport as he travelled by train, things took a turn for the worse as the 20-year-old seemed to get into an altercation. Just three hours after booking the flight, Freddy shared a photo of himself with his large yellow suitcase and designer backpack making his way to the airport. However, in a follow up snap, he revealed he missed his flight due to 'getting punched' and was handed a 'fine on the train'. Freddy penned: 'Missed my flight got punched and got a fine on the train what a s*** day.' The star, who is the second son of late reality star Jade Goody and TV presenter Jeff Brazier, also shared a selfie of what appeared to be a swollen eye. Documenting his journey to Stansted Airport as he travelled by train, things took a turn for the worse as the 20-year-old seemed to get into an altercation MailOnline has contacted Freddy and Jeff's representatives for comment. It comes just three weeks after he announced he was going to rehab in Marbella, admitting he 'wanted a healthy relationship with his dad' following a family fallout. The model told fans at the time that he had been addicted to 'smoking' from the age of 12 and would be heading for treatment soon. Although, in a shock U-turn, Freddy changed his mind, explaining that he 'doesn't need rehab' and instead just 'needs a boys' holiday or a retreat'. Freddy is the youngest son of Jeff Brazier and the late Jade Goody, who also share an older son Bobby, 22. Jade died from cervical cancer in 2009, when Freddy was just four years old, and he has since been raised by his dad Jeff. Freddy and his maternal grandmother Jackiey Budden were spotted smoking suspicious cigarettes after their recent reconciliation, despite his dad's legal war to block contact. He was seen puffing with his gran, 68, in front of tourists near Tower Bridge in South London, after Mail On Sunday revealed Freddy had been living with his maternal grandmother for a week. Jackiey and Jeff have clashed multiple times over the years, and it was revealed last month that the TV star is taking action in an attempt to legally block contact between his son and his grandmother 'to keep him safe'. Freddy also reportedly skipped his brother Bobby's birthday bash amid his feud with father Jeff over his relationship with grandmother Jackiey. EastEnders star Bobby turned 22 on June 2, and while other loved ones including his father and step-mum Kate were present, his sibling was noticeably absent. Despite Freddy acknowledging the birthday online, it is said that there was 'sadness' felt by the family that Freddy wasn't there to celebrate in person. A source told The Sun: 'It was a really nice family occasion but everyone really missed Freddy. 'He was of course invited but he is making his feelings quite clear at the moment about who he wants to be spending time with.' 'He did acknowledge that Bobby's birthday online but there was some sadness that he wasn't there with his brother,' they added.
