Meghan Markle Reveals in Essay She Suffered a Miscarriage Over the Summer

Meghan Markle has revealed she suffered a miscarriage in July. The former Duchess of Sussex shared the news of the loss of her child in an essay published to the New York Times. She detailed the moment it occurred while changing her 1-year-old son Archie’s diaper. She also opened up about time spent in the hospital and the “unbearable grief” that followed for both her and her husband Prince Harry. Little else is known about the couple’s loss, except that Markle was most likely in her first trimester. The 39-year-old former actress also referenced the year of 2020 and how it has been dominated by themes of “loss and pain,” touching on mental health, the pandemic, and racial injustice. Harry and Buckingham Palace have not commented on the article. The former royal couple stepped back from their duties and titles back in January and have since settled down in Markle’s hometown of LA.
