Sharon Gaffka has been supported by her famous pals and fans after revealing she suffered a heartbreaking miscarriage 18 months ago.
The 27-year-old Love Island star issued a trigger warning on Instagram before sharing her experience with pregnancy loss a year on from what would have been her baby’s due date. Posting an emotional selfie with a tear running down her face, she said her grief had hit her “like a train”.
Revealing she had found it “incredibly tough to function” this week, Sharon said she had “struggled to find a space where the unique emotional journey that those who don’t envision motherhood in their future go through when facing such a loss, being talked about openly”.
But her pals, such as fellow Love Islander Georgia Harrison, were quick to comment underneath praising Sharon for sharing her experience so openly. “Very proud of you chick. You would have helped a lot of other girls being so open with your feelings and I hope you give yourself space to heal xxxx.”
