Tiffany suffered a miscarriage weeks before CBB

[Pete.]

The US reality star, 34, was left heartbroken after losing her baby four months into the pregnancy.

Fans watching her on the show have had no idea she is recovering from the ordeal.

Tiffany, spoke about her loss before she entered the house in footage not seen by viewers.

She became pregnant last summer but miscarried shortly before Christmas.

Tiffany was filming US reality series Family Therapy With Dr Jenn for the VH1 network at the time.

A source close to Tiffany said: “She was understandably heartbroken when it happened.

“It was a really tough time for her but she is a strong woman and she faced it with amazing courage.”

Tiffany has not talked about her miscarriage to other housemates on air. But our insider said she is planning to speak about her ordeal to inspire other women who have also lost babies.

Last week fellow contestant Kristina Rihanoff, 38, announced to the house she is expecting a child with boyfriend Ben Cohen, 37.

Close friends of Tiffany fear the news will remind her of what she went through and make it harder for her to cope.

One said: “Tiffany was hoping her time in the house would take her mind off what has happened.

“But Kristina’s announcement is likely to bring back memories of one of the toughest things she’s ever had to deal with.”

[Jordan.]

Tragic </3

[Jason.]

That's so awful. :sad:

[EspeonBB]

Tiffany :sad:

[Ross.]

:sad:

[Amy Jade]

So sad, she's so brave to still go in

[Beso]

sad.


I don't know how she coped making all the comments about sex in her vt after that.

[zakman440]

That's so sad to hear :( - I have a lot of respect for her now for going in even after going through this.

[Samm]

Sad :( She's so strong

[Northern Monkey]

Would explain why she's been so boring.

[T*]

Aw D:

[ThriceShy]

sad.


I don't know how she coped making all the comments about sex in her vt after that.

I'm honestly starting to think that the producers script the VTs.

[Cherie]

A lot of women have miscarriages, it's sad but life goes on and she can try again, unlike the 16 year old who was stabbed to death at a party last night.

Not very relevant especially when miscarriges feel like deaths themselves to mothers

[Headie]

Omg I never knew this :( She's such a strong woman

[Glenn.]

Poor Tiffany :sad:

You don't need to preach to me about miscarriage I know all about it, like I say life goes on she could have deferred but she didn't

[Vicky.]

A miscarriage at 4 months would be horrendous. I had one at 7 weeks and it was the most painful thing ever, both physically and mentally. An extra 2 months on and it would actually be like a baby, where mine as a blob.

Sorry if that sounds graphic :S

She does seem to be an extremely strong woman. I could barely even leave the house for random fits of tears. nevermind go on tv :S

[Firewire]

You don't need to preach to me about miscarriage I know all about it, like I say life goes on she could have deferred but she didn't

And she literally hasn't mentioned her miscarriage this story was clearly sold by someone else so I don't understand why comparing a murder to her personal tragedy is relevant at all?

[Headie]

And she literally hasn't mentioned her miscarriage this story was clearly sold by someone else so I don't understand why comparing a murder to her personal tragedy is relevant at all?

Yeah I was just gonna say I respect her even more for not bringing it up in the house to get sympathy votes.

[Cherie]

And she literally hasn't mentioned her miscarriage this story was clearly sold by someone else so I don't understand why comparing a murder to her personal tragedy is relevant at all?

Not too many have commented on that thread, she is alive and she chose to go in

[T*]

I can't imagine what was going through her head when kristina announced she was pregnant :sad:

[Beso]

I'm honestly starting to think that the producers script the VTs.

or the whole thing about the miscarriage is a load of made up bollocks.

[Tom4784]

:(

What a strong woman she is to go through that and then to do something as emotionally taxing as CBB on top of it all. I can't imagine what she must be going through.

[Cal.]

Yeah I was just gonna say I respect her even more for not bringing it up in the house to get sympathy votes.

Exactly.

I'm actually disgusted

:umm2:

[Heaven = Winner]

Tiff! </3

And she's doing so well in the house too! She really is a strong woman, mentally and physically <3

[LukeB]

How can the miscarriage be made up when she didn't even mention it on the show :umm2:

[Kazanne]

You don't need to preach to me about miscarriage I know all about it, like I say life goes on she could have deferred but she didn't

So do I Cherie and I agree with you 100% ,funnyhow some of the guys back stories are claimed to be sympathy votes but the girls they like it's Aw how awful :joker:

[Amy Jade]

People really are dissaponting me this series on here wow

• She faked a miscarriage
• she's attention seeking
• oh well life goes on

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

[Samm]

So do I Cherie and I agree with you 100% ,funnyhow some of the guys back stories are claimed to be sympathy votes but the girls they like it's Aw how awful :joker:

How can it be a sympathy vote if she hasn't even mentioned it in the house? lmao

[Kazanne]

How can it be a sympathy vote if she hasn't even mentioned it in the house? lmao

I said the guys back stories are tossed off as sympathy votes in fact some are laughed at , but the women who people like are fawned over, I didn't say she had mentioned it .

[Tom4784]

So do I Cherie and I agree with you 100% ,funnyhow some of the guys back stories are claimed to be sympathy votes but the girls they like it's Aw how awful :joker:

Wow... I expected better from you, Kazanne.

[Samm]

I said the guys back stories are tossed off as sympathy votes in fact some are laughed at , but the women who people like are fawned over, I didn't say she had mentioned it .

What sympathy votes for the guys? If you mean John's about his fee going to his mother, then I certainly never mocked or laughed at that.

[Beso]

lol at the daily star suddenly becoming the pinnacle of truth.

[Pete.]

What would Sister Patterson think reading this?

[Pete.]

lol at the daily star suddenly becoming the pinnacle of truth.
Lots of media outlets are reporting this

[Cherie]

People really are dissaponting me this series on here wow

• She faked a miscarriage
• she's attention seeking
• oh well life goes on

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

Life has gone on for her though, if she doesn't want it mentioned fair dues to her, don't know why we are discussing it, it has been claimed the story was sold so I guess we are discussing her private life without her permission.

[Amy Jade]

lol at the daily star suddenly becoming the pinnacle of truth.

Google it, that was the first thing I did - lots of major news outlets are carrying the story.

[Kazanne]

What sympathy votes for the guys? If you mean John's about his fee going to his mother, then I certainly never mocked or laughed at that.

I know you didn't but others do,Christopher was another.

[Amy Jade]

So because 'life goes on' we can't be sympathetic towards her losing a baby almost half way through pregnancy?

[Niamh.]

So because 'life goes on' we can't be sympathetic towards her losing a baby almost half way through pregnancy?


Indeed, shocking

[Beso]

I'm actually disgusted

will it be the first time "a source" has made stuff up for a quick buck?

jesus wept, wait until tiffany confirms it before believing that rag.

[rionablue]

Would explain why she's been so boring.

God almighty that's an awful thing to say !!!!

[Maru]

A lot of women have miscarriages, it's sad but life goes on and she can try again, unlike the 16 year old who was stabbed to death at a party last night.

Except that the child that she miscarried won't even have the chance to see 16......

[Cherie]

So because 'life goes on' we can't be sympathetic towards her losing a baby almost half way through pregnancy?

I posted my view, you posted yours where's the problem Amy?

[Kazanne]

I had a miscarriage a few years back ,it is devastating,so how she has managed to go into that house and be so upbeat after such a short time is beyond me ,she's a better woman than I.

[Jamie89]

So sad :sad:

or the whole thing about the miscarriage is a load of made up bollocks.

I'm embarrassed for anyone who sees a thread like this as an opportunity to spread negativity.

[Beso]

People really are dissaponting me this series on here wow

Horrible. Horrible. Horrible.

erm, excuse me i never said she faked it.

[Amy Jade]

I posted my view, you posted yours where's the problem Amy?

I'm not the one with the problem, Cherie. You were the one coming in here to try and shame people for posting sympathetic messages by saying somebody had died at 16 in another thread and fewer had posted there.

[Pink Pegasus]

I can't imagine what was going through her head when kristina announced she was pregnant :sad:

I agree, that must have been very tough. :(

[Cherie]

:hug: you two

It did annoy me tbf maybe because I have a 16 year old :son and I can really identify with it and can't imagine how I would be feeling in his Mums shoes, I can also identify with miscarriage and I know life goes on, it's tough but you get through it and working which Tiffany is will get her through it

[Calderyon]

Sad thing to hear. Condolences to her and hopefully she pulls through it.

I now respect her much more for not bringing it up in the house in exchange of votes, unlike Kristina the opportunist, who probably couldn´t wait announce it.

[Jason.]

Some of the comments on this thread makes me sick

[Kazanne]

:hug: you two

Thanks Cherie,but we all know it happens to millions of women all over the world,I guess we all handle it differently but like Vicky there is no way I could go on TV so soon after,I still think about it now and get upset ,how she has gone in there so soon is something I couldn't have done,

[Headie]

will it be the first time "a source" has made stuff up for a quick buck?

jesus wept, wait until tiffany confirms it before believing that rag.

And then when she confirms it people will cry "oh she's just looking for sympathy votes!!!" :rolleyes:

[reece(:]

I knew coming in here to expect nasty comments, just typical :bored:

Very sorry to hear this anyhow :(

[Jamie89]

I kind if think though, it's her job, and even though it's a job that's difficult for a lot of us to understand because it's so different to what we'd probably consider 'normal work', she still needs to work. So it's likely to be that she thinks she has to do it, in the same way many other women may have to go back to work after a tragedy like that. It probably goes some way to explaining why so far she hasn't been the personality a lot of people were expecting. I know she hasn't exactly been quiet :laugh: but as she said herself, she's been much quieter than she normally is. I'm sorry to hear about your loss by the way Kaz, and Vicky too. I can't imagine how awful it must be to go through something like that :sad:

[Beso]

sorry folks i shouldn't have posted that.

[smudgie]

If she has had a miscarriage then I really feel for her.
I am just surprised that BB were considering putting a woman so far into her pregnancy into the house.:shrug:

..yeah, it's her job and I've always found through any sadness that getting that 'normality' and routine back as soon as possible has been the best thing for me...

..she has many fans on here...(which is why I'd heard of her because I haven't seen much of her before..)...and none knew until now..?...so someone who is quite deep as well ...housemates/people are often see as shallow/'reality TV types' but actually have great depth to them as people...atm, not only will her emotions/hormones etc be everywhere as well as her grief but she's had to face Kristina's announcement and without her family/friend support circle around her, that would be very difficult for her...and she didn't take that opportunity either to say anything...she didn't take any of Kristina's happiness and her moment away from her, a very strong lady I think...:hug:...I'm glad that she is going to talk about it though, so the article says...not only because it's something that so many people go through but because it might help her in the house as well, to feel support from the housemates....she's one of my favourites and I hope that she does well in this and stays for as long as she feels is right for her and I hope that it's helped her to get back to work so quickly....Tiff..:lovedup:...

[Natalie.]

Aw poor Tiffany :sad: she seems such a strong woman, must have been hard with Kristina's announcement

[Ant.]

Tiffany </3

A lot of women have miscarriages, it's sad but life goes on and she can try again, unlike the 16 year old who was stabbed to death at a party last night.

umm2

[Denver]

I Respect her for this because she had the chance to use it for sympathy but decided she had more dignity then that and kept it to herself and that proves how strong she is

[Pete.]

I think this clearly caused her inital erratic behaviour tonight. The subject of death is too much for her, I wonder if any psychologists were drafted in during the 1 hour she was in the DR to calm her down.

[Samm]

I completely forgot about this since the episode was so full on, this was probably the reason she got all angry when she thought Angie was joking around about David Gest dying
