Meghan Markle: the story of her abortion
The editorial of the Duchess is intended to be a message aimed at all those women who still cannot accept what unfortunately happens very often: spontaneous abortion. And so she tells herself with an open heart, without being afraid of being judged: “After changing her diaper, I felt a strong cramp. I let myself fall to the ground with him in my arms - he explained - humming a lullaby to keep us calm, the cheerful melody in stark contrast to the feeling that something was wrong ”. The woman states: "Losing a child means carrying with you an almost unbearable pain, experienced by many but which few talk about". And then he underlines: "In the pain of our loss, my husband and I discovered that in a room of 100 women - he continues - 10 to 20 would suffer from miscarriage".
"Yet despite the bewildering commonality of this pain, the conversation remains taboo, full of (unwarranted) shame." Meghan concludes.
