by Katy Hallam, https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/authors/katy-hallam/ · Birmingham LiveMyleene Klass was reduced to tears on Loose Women as she opened up about her "nightmare" miscarriages. The presenter had a heart-wrenching exchange with Olympian Laura Kenny, who was on the show to discuss her own fertility struggles.
"It's something a lot of people can relate to", Myleene confided. "I've had that nightmare four times, it's the worst.."
Overcome by emotion, Myleene broke down in tears and was comforted by her fellow Loose Women panel members. Now a mother to three children, the 46 year old former Hear'Say star suffered a miscarriage while presenting on Smooth Radio.

After enduring the loss of four babies, she initiated a campaign to support women who have experienced similar heartbreak. Nadiya Sawalha, the host of Loose Women, held Myleene's hand as she shared: "What's just so shocking is, it's just such an isolating experience.
"You're bleeding, alone. You're walking out of a hospital - you were pregnant when you went in, you're meant to walk out with a baby - you walk out with nothing.
"And yet, we say to people at least you can get pregnant again, you can try again, it was just cells, at least it wasn't a baby. Through something called microcyronism.
"You carry those cells in your body right now and subsequently the baby you go on to have carries those cells too. When I hug my baby I hug seven children."
Former Team GB cyclist Laura became a mother to her first child, seven year old Albie, in 2017. After competing in the Tokyo Olympics in 2020, she and her husband - fellow ex-cyclist Jason Kenny - started trying for another baby.
However, in 2021, Laura suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage. A year on, Laura went through an ectopic pregnancy, a condition where the embryo implants outside the lining of the uterus.
