Carrie and Boris Johnson expecting second baby after miscarriage heartbreak

Carrie revealed she was pregnant and that she suffered a miscarriage earlier this 12 months in an Instagram publish on Saturday.

"Hoping for our rainbow baby this Christmas," she wrote, referring to a toddler which is born after a miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal demise.

"At the beginning of the year, I had a miscarriage which left me heartbroken. I feel incredibly blessed to be pregnant again but I've also felt like a bag of nerves," she wrote.

"Fertility issues can be really hard for many people, particularly when on platforms like Instagram it can look like everything is only ever going well," Johnson added. "I found it a real comfort to hear from people who had also experienced loss so I hope that in some very small way sharing this might help others too."
