Perrie Edwards says she was ‘traumatized’ by ‘horrendous’ miscarriages

Perrie Edwards broke down in tears revealing she suffered multiple miscarriages, including a “horrendous” late-term pregnancy loss at 24 weeks.

The Little Mix member suffered her first miscarriage before her son Axel, 3, was born in 2021 and the second when she got pregnant after her son’s birth.

“I was just traumatized,” the Little Mix member shared on Tuesday’s episode of the “We Need to Talk” podcast of the second miscarriage. “I think when you’re fully carrying and you’re 24 weeks and you’ve planned out like their room and all these things, it’s really hard.”

Edwards, 32, shared that she and her fiancé, Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain had just returned from vacationing in Portugal when they went to a routine doctor’s appointment in 2022.

She recalled the doctor anxiously performing an ultrasound, and knowing “something was wrong with the scan,” saying, “I just looked at Alex and I thought, ‘Something’s not right.’ And then I remember sitting down, and I remember [the doctor] just saying these things.”

“But I don’t remember what he said,” the “Power” songstress added, explaining she had an “out of body experience,” and everything went in “slow motion.”

“That was just the worst day of my life,” she continued. “Like horrendous … I remember sobbing.”

Edwards described being in shock on the way home, recalling how her husband was “struggling to drive” and she “couldn’t see straight.”

The “Touch” singer noted that she only told those close to her about the pregnancy, and when friends would reach out about the baby, she would tearfully respond, “There isn’t one.”

Edwards shared she learned she was pregnant again before her son Axel’s first birthday in 2022.

“I found out when I was rehearsing for the Little Mix tour,” she said. “I was at rehearsals and I thought, ‘Oh, I don’t feel good.’ Every symptom under the sun. I was like, ‘I think I’m pregnant.’”

The pop star confirmed the pregnancy with a test and kept it under wraps while performing onstage from April 2022 to May 2022.

“I remember being on tour and every night before a show, I kept bleeding — heavily bleeding. I remember sitting [and] thinking, ‘This is it, I’ve lost the baby. It’s happening,’” Edwards said.

The “X-Factor UK” alum recalled going to get a scan done the next day and seeing the baby in her womb, and a “blood clot around the sac.”

Edwards stated that she believed it was a “miracle,” saying, “The baby’s still there, everything’s fine.

“Then again, it kept happening every night on tour, and I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I can’t cancel the show. I have to go out. I have to put a brave face on. I have to keep my s–t together.’”

She remembered the uncertainty of not knowing if she had another blood clot, but at her 12-week scan, “everything was fine,” until her 24-week check-in.

The “Sweet Melody” singer also experienced a miscarriage before getting pregnant with Axel, her “rainbow baby.”

“It was so early, I remember finding out I was pregnant, obviously I started bleeding not long after,” she stated, recalling how she went to the hospital, underwent a scan and was told, “There is no baby.”

Edwards claimed the experience wasn’t as “traumatizing in the moment because she felt, ‘Oh, it was very early.’”

“It didn’t impact me that much,” she said.

She also described her pregnancy with Axel as “one of the happiest moments of [her] life.”

Edwards announced that she welcomed her son with Oxlade-Chamberlain, 32, in August 2021, after keeping the majority of her pregnancy under wraps.

The couple took their romance public in January 2017 and got engaged in June 2022.
