TV star Amanda Holden says she needed therapy to help her deal with her heartbreak following the loss of her second child in 2011.
The 42-year-old actress was seven months into her second pregnancy when her baby boy with husband Chris Hughes was stillborn in February, 2011, and now she has opened up about her grieving process, reported Contactmusic.
"I only very recently felt like I needed to see a therapist. I saw somebody five or six times. To know your baby might not be born alive is incomprehensible. We called him Theo. He was nearly three pounds - bigger than some babies in the premature ward," Holden said.
"Chris and I were very private and we grieved at night. We went to bed and we talked and talked. Chris never cried. I did all the crying."
Holden has since welcomed a little girl named Hollie, now 18 months, and says she would like to add another child to her brood, which also includes her seven-year-old daughter Lexi.
"Probably - but only if I knew for sure there would be a successful outcome. I know everyone loves their children, but Hollie is the most loving thing. I tell everyone to have a baby. Forget your career - you can do it at the same time," she said.
