She revealed that she had no idea that she’d lost her quadruplets from a previous pregnancy because her body was ‘still being pregnant’ after enduring a missed miscarriage.

She had a second miscarriage at six weeks into another pregnancy in February – on the day of the couples’ engagement party. 

Celebrating: Jorgie had a lavish baby shower in October in Manchester as she showcased her growing baby bump as her due date neared 

Disclosing the news about being pregnant again in HELLO! magazine, the couple said having a ‘healthy baby was a dream come true’ as they spoke of their heartbreak after a number of miscarriages.

What is a missed miscarriage?

A missed miscarriage, also known as a missed abortion or a silent miscarriage, occurs when a foetus dies, but the body does not recognise the pregnancy loss or expel the pregnancy tissue.

As a result, the placenta may still continue to release hormones, so the woman may continue to experience signs of pregnancy.

It’s usually diagnosed during a routine checkup, where the doctor will fail to detect a heartbeat. A subsequent ultrasound will show an underdeveloped foetus.

Porter told the magazine: ‘We’re thrilled to reveal that we’re expecting a baby boy. Ollie and I didn’t mind either way, of course. All we wanted was a baby.

‘He’s certainly very active, and I can feel him doing somersaults and backflips. It’s incredible to think what we’ve created.’

Ollie described their emotion during the routine ultrasound scan after miscarriages over the past year. 

He said: ‘We’d been through so much to reach this point and had learnt to take nothing for granted. Just to have a healthy baby was a dream come true.’ 

In October. Jorgie enjoyed a lavish baby shower at Firefly in Manchester where she was joined by her friends, family and co-stars.
