The 44-year-old presenter has 20-year-old Bobby with former partner Jade Goody - who died of cancer in 2009 at the age of 27 - and just months after the young lad made his debut on BBC soap opera 'EastEnders' as Freddie Slater, explained that he can see how much his son is improving with every episode.

He told The Mirror: "I'm really proud of Bobby and the attitude he has had since he's been on 'EastEnders'. He's wanted to absorb as much from all the incredibly experienced actors around him. He's made a really good start to his career, and I can see he's proud of himself, too.

"I can see every time I switch it on that he's got better. Every time I watch it I can see he's better in the terms of the layers. I'm no acting expert, I can't say how good he is, but I'm really proud of my son. He's had an opportunity and he's taken it."

Meanwhile, Bobby has recently been announced as one of the celebrities taking part in the upcoming series of 'Strictly Come Dancing' alongside the likes of actor Nigel Harman and tennis star Annabel Croft.

But Jeff - who competed on ITV's 'Dancing on Ice' in 2011 - warned that the Latin and ballroom competition would be "really difficult" for his son because there is so much to learn.

He added: "He's going to get to learn a lot about himself. It's going to be really difficult, he's going to have to really dig in. There's a lot to learn, then you forget it all and there's another routine!"
