In this week’s episode of her new reality series, Ferne opened up about the heartbreaking experience the couple had faced.

Ferne told the camera: “We found out that I was pregnant, we were so excited and it just felt like the right time to expand our family.”

The show then showed the reality star during a therapy session with Lorri, where she said: “And then very early on, I, I ummm, we had, we had a miscarriage as well.”

Ferne then told the programme: “When I was five weeks and I started bleeding and I was desperately scouring the internet, because I didn’t want to admit what I knew deep down was actually happening and that was my body rejecting and letting go of this baby.”

The reality star got emotional, saying: “ I was really, really upset. I think Lorri found it really hard to comprehend.”

Later in the episode, Ferne revealed she had fallen pregnant again and had a conversation with Lorri about having another baby, following the miscarriage.

Two weeks ago, the reality star announced her pregnancy with an exclusive interview in OK! Magazine.

She later shared how it felt “really special” to share her pregnancy with fiance Lorri after giving birth and raising daughter Sunday alone.

When Ferne was pregnant with Sunday, she split from partner Arthur Collins after he was arrested for throwing acid in a nightclub in 2017.

Arthur was accused of throwing acid into a packed dance floor at Mangle nightclub in East London and was convicted of five counts of grievous bodily harm with intent and nine counts of actual bodily harm against 14 people.

The reality star also shared that she had been feeling “a little bit sick” but was in “hibernating mode” during the winter holidays.
