Danniella Westbrook reveals she suffered a miscarriage last year during time she was trying for a baby with ex-boyfriend George Arnold
The former soap actress admitted the tragic loss was part of the reason she was checking into rehab
DANNIELLA Westbrook has revealed that she suffered a secret miscarriage last year during the time she was desperately trying for a baby with her ex-boyfriend George Arnold.
The former soap star, 42, took to Instagram to tell her fans that she was checking into rehab in Marbella and admitted the tragic loss was part of the reason she had been struggling last year.
Back in February last year she revealed that she wanted to have a baby with George and in April she shared an Instagram snap of herself in the pool, which she described as "looking pregnant".
This prompted a flurry of "congratulations" from fans - but Danniella never elaborated on the post.
And now, in an Instagram post telling her 10,900 followers that she would be going to rehab, she admitted that she was coming to terms with "losing her baby".
Writing about the reasons why she was checking into the facility in Marbella, she said that the Channel 5 In Therapy show cost her a "lot of heart ache" and "painful childhood memories & trauma that the show didn't fix".
Danniella, who is mum to Kai (20) and Jody (15), also attributed her pain to a "total lie and sham of a marriage, the illness from botched bodies".

She then shockingly revealed: "A break up from the only man I ever loved and loosing a baby last year , I think it's time I did this once and for all for myself my kids and my very small but close circle of friends."
The former actress also sadly miscarried her unborn child with fiancé Tom Richards back in 2014.
At the time, she revealed that she was "heartbroken" and that she felt as though she'd "let him down".
The Sun Online has reached out to Danniella's reps for comment.
