Coronation Street's Sam Aston comforts wife as she fights tears on Loose Women over baby loss

manchestereveningnews.co.uk:

Coronation Street star Sam Aston has shown his support for his wife as she became tearful on Loose Women while discussing their baby loss.

Briony Aston was flooded with messages last month when she spoke out about suffering two miscarriages in a short space of time.

Sharing their double heartbreak in an open Instagram post, hypnobirthing teacher, birth doula, and trainee midwife Briony posted a picture of a positive pregnancy test that instead read: "Not pregnant anymore." Briony then wrote a lengthy caption in which she spoke about her and her soap star husband's recent loss and how she was sharing what had happened in the hope of "breaking the taboo." She wrote at the time "This is a difficult thing to share, but in the interest of breaking the taboo, I'm miscarrying again, the second time in four months...it's heartbreaking and it's unfair, BUT I'm not seeking sympathy, I feel well supported and want others to feel supported too.

"We'd told close friends and family about both pregnancies, because I knew that, for me, I would want support from those people if it wasn't meant to last.

But I wouldn't have been so open had I not heard from other women about the babies they lost and their stories." Briony went on to share: "So thank you to all the women before me who have shared their stories and talked about their babies, it makes processing this a lot easier, and I don't feel alone at all.
