    Jodie Marsh has urged her fans to donate to charity in memory of her mother

    The 41-year-old star took to Twitter to urge her followers to give some money to Cancer Research after her mother Kristina passed away last month after battling against the disease


    Jodie wrote on the social media site: "Hi everyone, you have all been so incredibly kind & some of you have asked to send flowers for mum or me.

    "Instead of flowers mum had asked for a donation to be made to @CR_UK – there is no pressure whatsoever but if you do want to donate in her memory."

    The former 'Celebrity Big Brother' contestant shared the tragic news about Kristina's death last month and posted a series of pictures of them together.

    She captioned the images: "My beautiful, kind, caring, generous, intelligent, funny, classy and incredible mum passed away this morning. There will never be another woman like my mum. She was the strongest woman I've ever known. She was my best friend and I don't know how to do life without her...."

    The glamour model had claimed earlier this year that Kristina was sent home from hospital to "die from cancer" because of coronavirus.

    In response to a tweet from a cancer charity that urged those suffering from symptoms to visit a doctor, Jodie explained: "Not quite true. My mum was basically turfed out of hospital and told to 'come back in 8 weeks' even though she has the most aggressive growing cancer her consultant had ever seen. Thrown out of hospital because of Covid. No treatment. She's dying at home. No word from hospital."
