Jessie J has spoken out about how she’s been “grieving the loss” of her baby, after suffering a miscarriage last November.
On Instagram on Friday, the 34-year-old singer shared two images of herself, one from when she was 16 and one that appeared to be taken recently. In the caption, she went on to share an emotional message about how it has not been “easy” for her to have a baby, following her misarriage last year.
“When I was 16 years old I wrote a list of things I wanted by the time I was 30,” she wrote. “1st thing on the list was to be a Mum. Now I’m nearly 35 and some days the grief of losing a baby and it not being easy to have one, and wanting my life in that way to look completely different to what it looks like right now just overwhelms me.”
The “Price Tag” singer whose real name is Jessica Ellen Cornish, went on to acknowledge how “normal” it is to have “days of complete sadness” and that she wants to “honour all the feelings that come up, good and bad”.
“The bad isn’t often at all and yes I could go through this moment right now today alone in private and usually do, but today I am here,” she wrote.
Jessie concluded her message by showing her support to all the people in the world who have suffered a miscarriage and “feel just like [she] does”.
“Because I know thousands of people around the [world] feel just like I do. Maybe you read this and feel the love I have for you,” she added. “I hope you can. Connecting is key. Hugging you all.”
