Ramsey reveals wife’s miscarriage heartache
COMEDIAN Chris Ramsey has praised his “warrior” wife after she was admitted to hospital following a miscarriage early on in her pregnancy, without knowing it had happened.
The TV star and stand-up shared a post written by his wife Rosie on Instagram, along with an image of a quote that read: “There is a unique pain that comes from preparing a place in your heart for a child that never comes.”
He wrote: “Reposted this from my wife’s insta. This it says it all. She’s been a warrior.”
Rosie, who has been married to Ramsey since 2014, said that last week they thought they would be sharing “some lovely news with you all but sadly that was not to be”.
“When we went for our 12 week scan our baby could not be found,” she said.
“He or she had passed early on in the pregnancy leaving behind the pregnancy sac, this is called a Blighted Ovum. (missed miscarriage).
“My body still thought I was pregnant for all those weeks after the baby had passed, hormones were released and everything apart from the baby was still growing.”
Rosie, who has a young son called Robin with the comedian, added: “I know it is going to take time to come to terms with all of this, I feel emotionally and physically exhausted.
“I have so much sympathy for other couples who have/are going through this as I never knew it entailed so much heartache.
“Robin has been wonderful through it all and we feel so blessed to have him in our lives.”
