Prior to that Jade was criticized for displaying a pronounced lack of knowledge for a British native. She thought that the city of Cambridge was in London, and when told that Cambridge was in East Anglia, Jade thought that was in another country, and called it "East Angular". Jade's friends said that the complaints against Jade were unfair because her speech pattern indicated exactly where she was from.

At Jade's funeral, her Bermondsey neighbors and friends created a huge flower wreath with the words "East Angular", as well as a bouquet with the words "Our Princess of Bermondsey". Bermondsey is in south London. Steven Fry called Jade "a Princess Diana from the wrong side of the tracks", which is actually a tribute to Jade.
