The Soho Hotel | 4 Richmond Mews | London | W1D 3DH

Join WFTV and W for a preview screening of the UKTV Original documentary Myleene Klass: Miscarriage & Me, followed by a Q&A with some of the team behind the film, produced by Hall of Mirrors.

In this one-off documentary, Myleene Klass opens up about the trauma of her miscarriages and meets women from across the country who share their experiences of baby loss, including close friends and family, with the aim of breaking the taboo which often surrounds this type of grief.

Myleene also follows a major campaign led by pregnancy charity Tommy’s as they urge the Government to change the care system so that more families can get the support they need following a miscarriage.

After the screening, Beth Neil will be in conversation with presenter Myleene Klass and Lucy Rogers, from production company Hall of Mirrors, discussing the making of this powerful documentary and the importance of opening the conversation around the subject and experiences shared by many.

Myleene Klass: Miscarriage & Me will air on channel W on during Baby Loss Awareness Week in October.
