The Frost French designer - who has three children, 11-year-old Rafferty, seven-year-old Iris and Rudy, five, with Jude - was reportedly disappointed Jude wouldn't leave the filming of his new film, 'Repossession Mambo', in Canada to attend the funeral of the children's 94-year-old great-grandfather.
A source close to the 42-year-old actress said: "The fact that Jude did not come really hurt Sadie, especially as it was his children who lost their great-grandfather. She is devastated at losing her maternal grandfather, and she knows how difficult it will now be for her mother Mary, who lives alone in a cottage in Somerset.
"She knew he was filming in Canada, but felt that in situations like that, he should have moved mountains to come."
Sadie's first husband Spandau Ballet star Gary Kemp - who has a 17-year-old son, Finlay Munro, with the designer - supported her at the Somerset funeral.
The source added to Britain's Daily Express newspaper: "Gary is such a nice guy, and insisted on being there to support his former wife. She really appreciated him taking the time out to go with her to the ceremony, as she felt she couldn't have done it alone."
