Lily Allen Remains Traumatised By 2010 Stillbirth

Lily Allen has said she remains traumatised by her stillbirth and doesn't think she will "ever really recover".

Lily gave birth to her stillborn son George in 2010.

She said: "The hardest thing about that was losing a child, but there were complications with the actual delivery. He was so small he actually got stuck halfway in and halfway out, so to speak, during the delivery, and because his skin wasn't fully formed they couldn't [use] forceps [to] pull him out.

"So there was a period of about 12 hours of lying there with him deceased in between my legs, which was incredibly [traumatic]. I went into trauma and I don't think I'll ever really recover from that.

She added: "I went into early labour and they put a stitch in my cervix to try and stop that from developing, and that lasted for the best part of a week.

"The stitch broke and I went into full-blown labour and the baby was really, really small. And as I was delivering him, the doctors said, 'There was a pulse and now there no longer is.' The cord was wrapped around his neck and he was just too small."

The singer now has daughters Ethel, six, and Marnie, five, with her ex-husband Sam Cooper.
