Rebecca Adlington has revealed her pregnancy. Just days after talking about the heartache of losing her baby girl, the Olympian and I’m A Celebrity star revealed she is expecting a child.
The swimmer has been open about the tragic two miscarriages she experienced. She first became aware of her in a routine 12-week ultrasound in 2022, and then in 2023, when a scan revealed there was no heartbeat.
She shared the news on social media by saying, “We want to let you know that we are expecting a child. Despite 19 months of trying, it has been an emotional and physical rollercoaster, but this pregnancy has been a small miracle.
We questioned whether or not we should share this information, but we want to remain open and honest about our journey and be aware of the difficulties that others have encountered and still encounter.
She continued, “We are taking each day as it comes, are incredibly appreciative of the care the NHS (Rainbow Team) provides, and feel overwhelmingly supported by them.”
“We carry awareness of the quiet struggles many people face, and we send love to those hearts as well,” we say while being cautiously overjoyed. We are aware that this type of news is still awaited by a large number of people.
When asked about giving birth to Harper, who was delivered five months early, she responded, “Normally you go through the birth and you get this wonderful, incredible child. It’s really difficult to do that and to be giving birth to your child when you’re expecting and you’re not going to see them cry or do these things.
Because their coloring is a little different, they explained what she would look like and what to expect. They actually calm your mind, which is a good thing. They came through and placed a little hat on her, covered her, and then came.
“And then I did want to see her,” she continued. I was like, “I absolutely want to see her,” as my gut told me at the time. And to be honest, I’ve been saying it constantly, “I’m so glad I did,” I’m so glad I did it. just to be able to see her little hands and nose and how she developed. And despite how challenging it was, if I hadn’t seen her, I believe I would have regretted making that choice.
The 36-year-old actress admitted that she “didn’t even consider the kind of danger aspect” when it came to her pregnancy with baby Harper. She had previously had a daughter in 2015 and a son in 2021.
