Kym Marsh Opens Up About Son's Death
On the heels of a very tough year, UK actress Kym Marsh says that she is honored to have been crowned Celebrity Mum Of The Year this week.
The Coronation Street star, who is mom to kids David, 14, and Emily, 11, suffered a devastating loss when her son Archie Jay passed away after arriving 18 weeks prematurely in February.
"It is a real honour to get this award. It is nice to know I have got a lot of support out there – it has been a really difficult year," she told reporters.
Kym has teamed with ITV1's Tonight for a special titled Born Too Soon.
"I hoped that doing this programme would go someway to finding some kind of answer as to why these things might go wrong with pregnancies," she explains.
Saying that her experience is still "very, very painful" to talk about, she recalls, "You do go home and your body is still doing all the things it would normally do (after giving birth) but you have no baby. So it's very, very hard to try and channel all those feelings somewhere else. It's very difficult... there kind of wasn't an awful lot of support afterwards, so you just leave with leaflets."
The 33-year-old beauty reveals that she's scared to try to conceive again: "I want to know what might happen in the future," she says. "If I was to try again, I would want to know that I was being looked after and maybe some steps were being taken to make sure they were monitoring me more closely."
