Heartbreaking for her.

In 2016 the Queen’s granddaughter, Zara Tindall, announced that she was pregnant.

However, Zara sadly suffered a miscarriage just one month after the announcement.

It was heartbreaking for her, and her husband Mike Tindall.

Perhaps what made it harder was the fact that it had to be formally announced to the world.

In an interview with the Sunday Times she said: “You don’t talk about it because it’s too raw”.

“But as with everything, time’s a great healer.”

“For me, the worst bit was that we had to tell everyone, everyone knew.”

“I had to go through having the baby because it was so far along.”

Zara also revealed that she suffered a second miscarriage before getting pregnant with her second daughter, Lena.

“I then had another miscarriage really early on.”

In the candid interview, Zara praised her “concerned” husband and “protective” brother.

“It was a time when my family came to the fore and I needed them.”

Mrs Tindall said: “In our case, it was something that was really rare; it was nature saying, ‘This one’s not right.’.”

Zara gave birth to Lena Tindall on 18th of June.

Little Lena is currently 19th in line to the throne.
