Jade Goody has been confronted in her hospital bed by a woman armed with a hammer.

The intruder walked into the terminally ill reality TV star's room at the Royal Marsden Hospital in London, her spokesman Max Clifford said.

Her husband Jack Tweed had been visiting but had left her side for a few moments.

Clifford said: "Jack had been with her for a few hours and had gone to get a cup of tea in the canteen when this happened.

"She woke up to find this woman leaning over her.

"She was not hurt but was very shaken up as you can imagine."

Police confirmed the woman has been arrested over the incident.

A spokesman for the Metropolitan Police said: "We can confirm that police were called to the Royal Marsden Hospital Sunday afternoon by security to reports of an unknown woman being in a patient's room.

"Officers attended and a 41-year-old woman was searched and found in possession of a hammer and was arrested for possession of an offensive weapon and taken into custody at a west London police station where she remains in custody."

Security has been tightened around Jade's room as a result, Mr Clifford said.

The 27-year-old, who is dying from cancer, spent the day resting after a christeneing ceremony at the hospital on Saturday.

Her two sons Bobby, five, and Freddy, four, were christened alongside their mother in what Mr Clifford described as "a very short and emotional service".

He said completing the ceremony and getting married to Tweed meant the former Big Brother housemate done all she wanted to before she dies.

He said: "What she said to me was 'everything is in place now'."

Jade, who has been told she has only weeks to live, was diagnosed with cervical cancer in August last year.
