Despite losing two babies, Amanda Holden's ready to try again

It has been less than four months since she suffered she lost her second baby in a year.

The 40-year-old Britain’s Got Talent judge, who is married to music producer Chris Hughes, said losing her unborn child seven months into pregnancy was ‘the worst time of our lives’.

But she added: ‘I am an optimist. I think, as bad as life sometimes gets, there is so much joy and so much good stuff, that there is a balance.
‘Although what happened is obviously horrifying, we can go on to have more children.’
Miss Holden, who has a five-year-old daughter, Lexi, also revealed that she developed a close friendship with a group of midwives who helped her through her ordeal in February.

Miss Holden revealed in January that she was expecting a baby son in March.

She had kept the pregnancy a secret for as long as possible after her miscarriage last year. But weeks later she was admitted to hospital after complaining that she had not felt the baby kick for 24 hours.
Doctors were unable to save him but were baffled as to what went wrong, describing him as ‘physically perfect’.
Miss Holden was forced to go under sedation while she came to terms with the shock and spent two days in hospital.
After her miscarriage in May 2010, she said: ‘It was without doubt the blackest period of my life.
‘You never think that it might happen to you. I was an absolute mess. Poor Chris was too but he was amazing.’
