A source close to the Queen reportedly said: "There is understandable sadness in the family."

Prince Harry’s uncle, Earl Spencer, appeared on ITV's Lorraine on Wednesday, hours after the news was revealed and said: "I can’t imagine the agony for any couple of losing a child in this way."

And Meghan has received countless amounts of praise for using her platform to open up about a subject that so many people experience and, yet, don't really talk about.

The mother-of-one's essay was entitled The Losses We Share and was printed in the New York Times on Tuesday.

The 39-year-old wrote: "After changing [Archie's] diaper, I felt a sharp cramp. I dropped to the floor with him in my arms, humming a lullaby to keep us both calm, the cheerful tune a stark contrast to my sense that something was not right.

"I knew, as I clutched my firstborn child, that I was losing my second. Hours later, I lay in a hospital bed, holding my husband’s hand.

Midwife Sophie King, from miscarriage research charity Tommy’s, called Meghan’s piece a ‘powerful message’, adding: "One in four pregnancies ends in loss but it’s a real taboo, so mothers like Meghan sharing their stories is a vital step in breaking down that stigma."

And Clea Harmer, of stillbirth charity Sands, added: "It helps enormously when someone in the public eye speaks out as it lets everyone affected know they are not alone."
