Singer Ray Quinn says his baby boy was ‘born sleeping’

The couple have also talked about the loss on their YouTube channel The Quinns.

In the episode Emily said: “Pregnancy and having children is a very special thing, but it does have risks and things can happen that you least expect. That’s happened to us.”

The 34-year-old described how, when a nurse broke the news that there was no heartbeat during a scan at six months, their “whole world stopped”.

“All our hopes and taking our little baby back to our renovated house just crashed before us”, she added.

The couple said they were sharing their story in the hope “it helps those out there who find themselves in a similar situation to us.”

Baby Loss Awareness Week takes place from 9 to 15 October.
