Perrie Edwards Reveals 22‑Week Pregnancy Loss

Perrie Edwards revealed she and fiancé Alex Oxlade‑Chamberlain suffered the traumatic loss of a baby at about 22 weeks after a 22‑week scan showed the baby’s heartbeat had stopped. She said all earlier scans had been normal and that her "world crumbled" when she learned the news; she later began producing milk, which she described as "the worst bit." Edwards praised Oxlade‑Chamberlain for staying by her side but said he was "traumatised" too and felt a lack of control as he tried to support her, and she emphasized that they grieved together. She is now expecting their second child and previously welcomed son Axel in 2021, whom she has called a "rainbow baby." Edwards discussed the ordeal in interviews with Glamour and on Paul C. Brunson’s podcast.
