Very sorry to see Zara and Mike Tindall have lost their baby

[Northernlurker]

Awful news for the whole family. She must have been about twenty weeks I guess. I have a friend who discovered a loss at the same point. It's a dreadful shock. I hope the press leaves them very much alone.

Very sad indeed.

Very upsetting.

Read that back and it's still sounds gossipy so please ignore it.

Thoughts are with the family especially Zara and Mike

That's so utterly terrible

Unborn, I said much the same and I don't think it's gossip. It's quite obvious this wasn't a first trimester loss and as such it will have been very shocking for them all. Bloody 2016!

That's sad

Very sad news - and as pp have said, I hope they are given privacy.

Really sad news.

So sad news. Especially at this time of the year ( being this time of the year probably meant an announcement might have had to be made sooner than they would have liked).

It's not gossip/speculation because the official announcement in November said late spring. So it must be about the 4 month point, give or take, and the exact number of weeks don't really make much difference to how horrid it is.

Awful news at any time, but a difficult extra resonance so close to Christmas.

How awful for them

What terrible news for them. So sad.

It's every couples worst nightmare.
Surely the press will leave them alone, it's not like they court the media at all. I hope they are allowed privacy and that their lovely little girl gets them through this sad time.

Feel very bad for them and anyone who has experienced pregnancy loss.

How sad. My heart goes out to them

That's so sad. I've met Zara and she's an all round good egg. Wishing her lots of love and strength.

That's horrendous, and I'm sure all of our thoughts are with them.

I knew Zara and her brother when we were children (and then later on when her brother was a student). Even though she's always been quite a robust individual... and from what I can gather from my ex who also knew her husband as a child, so is he... no one deserves to go through this. Especially not at the one time of year when everything is geared towards little ones.

Such sad news. I too hope they are left alone by the media. Thoughts are with them at this hard time.

Oh dear, that's very sad news.

Oh, that's very sad news. I hope they have a lot of support & can support each other x

so very sad.

Awful news. Wishing them the strength to get through this.

That is v sad news. I thought I had misheard the news hence coming here to check. Best wishes to Zara

All those bemoaning the Press, you do realise that gossiping on an Internet forum is equally intrusive, no?
