Kym Marsh Opens Up About The Loss of Her Son Archie

Kym Marsh has paid tribute to the baby boy she lost seven years ago today. The singer-turned-actress took to Twitter this morning to mark the anniversary of her son Archie’s death. He was born 18 weeks premature back in 2009.

7yrs ago today my baby boy became an angel. Too precious for this world. We miss you every day. Love you always and forever Archie Jay xxxx

She also opened up about the tragedy in her latest column for OK! magazine, adding that she takes comfort from looking at the positives. Kym wrote: "While I'll never get over losing him, now I find comfort in thinking that Archie gave me Polly (her daughter with ex-husband Jamie Lomas). "If I hadn't lost him, the doctors wouldn't have monitored me as closely when I was pregnant with Polly, which means I could have lost her.”

Love this little one so much ?? #mummysgirl ❤️❤️ pic.twitter.com/v9prAbx8cu — Kym Marsh (@msm4rsh) January 26, 2016
