During today’s show, the panel went on to discuss the news of Jessie J’s miscarriage.
The singer recently revealed she had lost a baby following a pregnancy scan.
Reflecting on her own experience, Linda shared with viewers: “After I had Lauren and then Louis, I got pregnant again for the third time.
It was a really heartbreaking time
“I was really excited about it and had my scans and everything was right in the first three months, scans and everything, and then I started to feel a bit strange.”
She continued: “You know, when you just know that it’s not the same as the other pregnancies and something’s not quite right there.
“So I rang the hospital and asked if I could come in and have another scan.”
Linda took her son Louis to the scan as she was convinced it was only morning sickness.
However, the actress received the devastating news there was no longer a heartbeat.
She added: “You have to go home knowing that the child is dead inside you and I had to come back the next day.
