Very sad for her. It must be very upsetting for any woman to experience a miscarriage so I respect her for talking about it since it may help and encourage a lot of other women to speak about it more and help find support for each other.

it's an awkward topic, but so is any bereavement. People arent shamed about it in the UK though, i know that for sure, maybe other countries are different?, if they are, it's not something i am aware of

People on Twitter claiming she faked it or is doing this for attention or sympathy.. obsession

Any loss of life is tragic but I still find these two a pair of self pitying attention seekers.

Poor Meghan, can't imagine the stress and heartache of that let alone the way both her & Harry have been treated by the media.

A tragedy for anyone who has experienced a miscarriage.

The absolute disgusting things I’ve read on twitter about Meghan today is shocking. It just confirms that people will blindly hate on the poor woman whatever happens which isnt surprising at all.

It's crazy isn't it , even after the traumatic experience she's still getting hate. People need to grow up and leave her and Harry alone.

...we tend to talk about so many things, it’s what we do on forums, we discuss and communicate...’a talking community’ of even the most emotionally painful of stuff..so it’s hard to imagine any ‘stigma or taboo’ that could be felt by others ....but I’m reading that there are charity apps set up so that people who are having or have had their lives touched with the sadness of miscarriage, are able to connect with others going through similar...especially also added, in the time of COVID ...when this grieving will have been felt by many parents like Meghan and Harry and felt alone because of restrictions...so very, very difficult...my niece’s son was born early and sadly didn’t survive and it’s a grief that had to be gone through without the close support of a family/friend circle because of COVID....it’s a loss that I guess is considered ‘more commonplace’...and yet it can be so shattering to lives if experienced...and obviously no lesser than any other loss...and yet can still to different extents, be a ‘more silent loss..’..it would seem...

lets be quite clear, Meghan didn't need to tell anyone about her miscarriage, she chose to make a thing about it by publishing in a national american newspaper along with other comments that were massaged to fit her agenda. Once she does that, she thrusts herself into the spotlight by her own intended actions and she should expect discussion good and bad to come from it

Miscarriage is horrible (we have been through two) but sadly very common. She has every right to talk about it if she wants. I find the wording a bit "flowery" but she's an actor not a writer so whatever.

I have no idea why any of this would be controversial or cause drama.

I have deleted 72 posts in here Can people please stick to this topic and save the negativity for a more general topic on the couple please. Also can members stop insulting and getting personal with each other or there will be infractions handed out

I totally agree with everything you said here.

For anyone to doubt the miscarriage is sickening and people on this forum have been sensitive to the issue.
I thought it a very bizarre way to announce it to the world...her own column all merged in with other issues she has previously addressed...and the way it was worded, I felt like I was reading a novel..

...Gemma......such a sad time for her also...and feeling inspired by Meghan’s words....


She thanked the duchess for publicly speaking about her loss, and insisted that while she worries ‘on bad days’ those pregnancies were her only chance at having a baby of her own, it won’t mark the end of her motherhood dreams. Gemma added: ‘I know I can give a baby a brilliant life – a life a world away from the world of ‘GC’, the larger-than-life character that most of the public know, and when my time to be a mother comes, I will do everything I can to protect the privacy of that cherished prize I have yearned for for so long.’
