Olympic cycling champions Dame Laura Kenny and her husband Sir Jason Kenny are expecting their second child following a difficult year, which saw Laura suffer an ectopic pregnancy two months after a miscarriage. The couple, whose first child Albie was born in August 2017, announced the news on Laura's Instagram page.
In a candid post, Laura told her followers she was "filled with all kinds of emotions" as she admitted she was "scared every single day". It comes after the 30-year-old had to have one of her fallopian tubes removed following an ectopic pregnancy, a dangerous condition that occurs when an egg implants itself outside the womb, in January last year. She also lost a baby in November 2021.
Posting a photo of herself in a hospital gown to her Instagram Story, she wrote: “A year ago today I was sat in A&E knowing I was really poorly but not knowing what was wrong with me. When I got the news I was having an ectopic pregnancy my world felt like it crumbled. We had already lost our second baby in November and I remember lying there searching for some sort of answers." Laura said she was still heartbroken, adding: "I don’t think it will ever go away."
