"My beautiful, kind, caring, generous, intelligent, funny, classy and incredible mum passed away this morning," Jodie wrote.
"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...."
On Thursday, Jodie shared another tribute to her mum in a second Instagram post as she shared more photos and memories of her mum after her death.
"The most classy woman I've ever known," Jodie wrote. "Beautiful inside and out. So much fun, always there when you needed her and so so clever. I am empty."

"Your staff are wonderful," she added. "Mum is with the NHS but the advice we've had from you guys is the thing that kept us going and gave us strength."
