Lily Allen has opened up about her January 2008 miscarriage in a new interview with The Telegraph. The baby would have been the first for Lily and her then-boyfriend Ed Simons of The Chemical Brothers.
“I was really depressed because of the miscarriage and I’d kind of lost the plot a bit,” the British singer explained. “It was quite a nasty time.
“It’s pretty hard to talk about it, but that Christmas I was at home with my family and Ed, and I wasn’t drinking, and I just sat there knowing I was having a baby and I was in absolute bliss. Sitting round eating turkey, playing games, watching everybody getting drunk, and being really excited knowing this time next year, I was going to have a baby … and I haven’t.”
The couple split shortly after the miscarriage, leaving Lily with many unanswered questions.
“I guess … it wasn’t to be. That’s all I can say…Maybe if I’d stayed pregnant and had the baby then things would have worked out between me and Ed. I don’t know. You could drive yourself insane thinking about it.”
