They’ve been regularly appearing on Zoom calls from their Santa Barbara home to support the causes close to their heart during the pandemic. But the beaming smiles of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were hiding an extremely painful secret.
In a raw and heartfelt opinion piece, she penned for The New York Times on November 25, Meghan, 39, revealed she and husband Prince Harry had lost their second child through a devastating miscarriage.
The duchess revealed she felt a “sharp cramp” while changing her 18-month-old son Archie’s nappy. “I knew, as I clutched my firstborn child, that I was losing my second,” she wrote before describing the grief she and Harry, 36, experienced following the tragic loss.
“Hours later, I lay in a hospital bed, holding my husband’s hand. I felt the clamminess of his palm and kissed his knuckles, wet from both our tears. Staring at the cold white walls, my eyes glazed over. I tried to imagine how we’d heal,” Meghan explained.
In stark contrast to the British royal family’s motto of “Never complain, never explain”, the mum-of-one’s emotional and searingly honest admission was an attempt to reduce the stigma associated with speaking about pregnancy loss. It’s estimated that as many as one in four recognised pregnancies will end in miscarriage.
