Katie Price, 46, heartbreakingly reveals she’s lost her baby after a surprise pregnancy with boyfriend JJ Slater, 31. Despite being told she had just a 1% chance of conceiving naturally due to perimenopause, the TV star was briefly over the moon – until doctors confirmed the devastating miscarriage.
From Joy to Tragedy: Katie’s Miscarriage Shock
The former glamour model discovered she was pregnant after missing her period on Boxing Day. But just weeks later, a clinic scan showed the heartbreak no baby was surviving. Katie opened up to The Sun about the crushing blow:
“We went to a clinic for blood tests and a scan, and the scan showed where the baby was, but that it wasn’t alive anymore. It’s been devastating.”
“Did I cry or not? I don’t really know, but I was just really sad because we went from joy and relief that I could get pregnant naturally to confusion, heartbreak, and sadness.”
Katie revealed that boyfriend JJ was thrilled to hear the pregnancy news, but concerns grew when her pregnancy tests didn’t darken – a red flag that something was wrong.
Katie’s IVF Dream Lives On Despite Loss
Refusing to give up, Katie says she’s determined to keep trying for a sixth child through IVF. She vowed:
“I still want another baby, and I won’t stop until I’m told I can’t anymore.”
With past fertility battles behind her, she’s gearing up to fight on despite the odds.
Raising Awareness & Supporting Others
Katie has teamed up with top UK charity Tommy’s to shine a light on pregnancy loss and offer support to grieving parents. A source close to the couple told The Sun:
“Kate and JJ are heartbroken—it’s been an incredibly tough few weeks, with emotions ranging from utter joy to complete devastation.”
Family, Fertility Struggles & What’s Next
Katie is already mum to five children:
- Harvey, 22, with Dwight Yorke
- Junior, 19, and Princess, 16, with Peter Andre
- Jett, 10, and Bunny, 9, with Kieran Hayler
She has bravely talked about multiple miscarriages and a life-threatening ectopic pregnancy. In her Channel 4 documentary Making Babies, doctors told her she had just “a couple of awake eggs” left, giving her less than a 1% chance of conceiving naturally.
Still, Katie is hopeful that IVF can help expand her family.
