The Duchess of Sussex has revealed that she had a miscarriage earlier this year.

In an article for The New York Times, Meghan wrote: “I knew, as I clutched my firstborn child, that I was losing my second.”

She describes how she “felt a sharp cramp” as she picked her son Archie out of his cot.

The royal said she went to hospital with Prince Harry where she watched “her husband’s heart break”.

She writes: “It was a July morning that began as ordinarily as any other day: Make breakfast. Feed the dogs. Take vitamins. Find that missing sock. Pick up the rogue crayon that rolled under the table. Throw my hair in a ponytail before getting my son from his crib.

“After changing his diaper, I felt a sharp cramp. I dropped to the floor with him in my arms, humming a lullaby to keep us both calm, the cheerful tune a stark contrast to my sense that something was not right.

“I knew, as I clutched my firstborn child, that I was losing my second.

“Hours later, I lay in a hospital bed, holding my husband’s hand. I felt the clamminess of his palm and kissed his knuckles, wet from both our tears. Staring at the cold white walls, my eyes glazed over. I tried to imagine how we’d heal.”
