She has suffered a miscarriage. The Look North presenter has announced she lost her second baby at 12 weeks, describing it as a “sad and worrying time”.
Keeley said she had first been off work during her pregnancy because of “horrid morning sickness” but, devastatingly, at her 12-week scan there was no heartbeat. She said that she was back in hospital just a few days later due to “heavy blood loss”, which confirmed the sad news.
Posting about the tragic loss on Instagram, Keeley, 39, said she wanted to add her voice to “the dialogue” surrounding miscarriage, as she feels that it is not talked about enough.
