TOWIE's Chloe Lewis didn't even know she was carrying twins
Chloe Lewis has opened up about the trauma of miscarrying at eight weeks – losing one of her twins.
The former TOWIE star said that she didn’t know she was carrying two babies until she began bleeding in the night and feared the worst.
Rushing to hospital the next day, Chloe was informed she’d been carrying twins but had tragically lost one of them in the womb.
“The next day I booked a scan with a private doctor, and she said: ‘There’s baby number one and baby number two.’ I was shocked,” she told OK! Magazine.
