Sharing an image of herself with a small baby bump, Myleene explained how Chrissy Tiegen's recent pregnancy loss inspired her to open up on her own situation.

'I am Mama to 7 babies, Ava, Hero, Apollo my rainbow baby and 4 little stars in the sky.I know after my own MC’s how I scoured the internet for stories similar to mine for peace, reassurance.I hope this helps even one lost soul,' Myleene wrote.

Myleene recalled how she lost the first pregnancy at 10 weeks while travelling home from a holiday to attend a dilation and curettage procedure while the second baby was also lost at 10 weeks.

'The scan was the saddest sight I’ve ever seen in my life.The first and last time I saw my baby.As the doctor pushed the camera on my belly, the familiar black and blue image of my baby sprung onto the screen, then started to sink and slowly floated down, til it just hunched over,' she wrote, looking back on the first miscarriage.

'The second time was worse if that’s possible, I thought I’d had my ‘1 in 4’ experience.This time,the baby had stopped growing at 10wks,completely unrelated to the first MC "so it’s just bad luck"

'The third,I miscarried at work.The fourth, the loo.'
