She wrote: “Hi my darlings, I finally feel ready to post this.. I mean I don’t know when there is a good time to post this.

“It’s been an extremely tough week mentally but also obviously physically… I am heartbroken beyond words..

“And I know I’m never quiet on here, & always so open and honest with you guys so it’s been a shock to you all.. I keep getting lots & lots of messages worrying about us all, asking why I’m being quiet & if Noah is ok..

“Noah is absolutely fine.. he’s amazing. I’m the one that’s not ok.. unfortunately I’ve suffered with a miscarriage.

“Obviously our families & close friends have known about me being pregnant, but didn’t announce anything until I got further down the line.. I was so excited to share our happy news with you all.

“Noah’s little brother or little sister, as you can imagine Matthew & I were absolutely over the moon our little family was going to be growing.
