British singer Jessie J has opened up about her experience with miscarriage.
Posting to Instagram in November 2021, the 33-year-old shared she was feeling 'overwhelming sadness' after learning her baby no longer had a heartbeat.
"Yesterday morning I was laughing with a friend saying, 'Seriously though, how am I going to get through my gig in LA tomorrow night without telling the whole audience I am pregnant,'" the singer wrote.

"By yesterday afternoon I was dreading the thought of getting through the gig without breaking down. After going for my third scan and being told there was no longer a heartbeat.
"This morning, I feel like I have no control of my emotions. I may regret posting this. I may not. I actually don’t know."
The singer added that she still wanted to perform at her gig that evening, despite her heartbreak.
"What I do know is that I want to sing tonight. Not because I'm avoiding the grief or the process, but because I know singing tonight will help me. I have done two shows in two years and my soul needs it. Even more today.
