TV presenter Myleene Klass, 46, has shared poignant photos from her miscarriage experiences while campaigning for paid bereavement leave for parents affected by pregnancy loss. Collaborating with MPs Sarah Owen and Olivia Blake, alongside charities Tommy’s and the Miscarriage Association, she urges lawmakers to support a new bill granting leave for families enduring miscarriage before 24 weeks.
A Personal Fight for Change
On Instagram, Myleene posted images of her bruised stomach from fertility treatments, ultrasound scans, and her son Apollo’s birth. She wrote emotionally: “It’s just cells… The same cells that stay in your body forever, change your chemistry, break your heart yet keep it beating?” She revealed “promising” progress but stressed the law must still pass a parliamentary vote. “This is HERSTORY in the making,” she declared, urging public support.

Breaking the Silence
Currently, UK law offers paid bereavement leave only for losses after 24 weeks, excluding 1 in 5 miscarriages that occur earlier. Myleene, who struggled to take time off after her losses, argued on Good Morning Britain: “Bereavement leave sets clear boundaries—it’s not like taking sick days for a cold. We must acknowledge this loss.”

The Road Ahead
With the government considering the bill, Myleene remains hopeful but cautious. “Westminster holds our wombs in their hands,” she remarked, emphasizing the need for legislative action. Her campaign, backed by personal vulnerability, aims to transform grief into systemic change.
