Linda Robson reveals the unborn baby girl she lost was named Olivia and often wonders what life would be like now if her daughter had survived

Linda Robson has revealed the unborn baby girl she lost was going to be called Olivia.

During Thursday’s instalment of Loose Women, The former actress, 65, recalled the miscarriage she endured during the height of her Birds Of A Feather fame.

While discussing a segment about having babies later in life, Linda told her fellow panelists: ‘I lost one inbetween Louis and Bobby, so I would have had four children.

‘So I often think what would it be like if I had the other baby now.’

Later, she revealed: ‘The little one that we lost was going to be called Olivia. I had beautiful babies though, didn’t I?’

Candid: ‘I lost one inbetween Louis and Bobby, so I would have had four children. ‘So I often think what would it be like if I had the other baby now’ admitted the former actress

Beautiful: Later, she revealed: ‘The little one that we lost was going to be called Olivia. I had beautiful babies though, didn’t I?’

Linda – who is mum to Roberta, 27, Louis, 31, and Lauren, 40 – first revealed she’d suffered a miscarriage years ago, during an instalment on Loose Women in February 2021.

She said: ‘I felt like something wasn’t right, so eventually I rung up and asked to have a scan, and I went down there with Louis [her son].

‘And the nurse did the scan and then went to me, ‘hold on a minute I’m just gonna go and call a doctor.’

‘Meanwhile, Mark [her husband] just turned up from work, I didn’t know he was coming.

‘And they came in and said the baby had died inside of me. It’s so hard for people, like when people die, they don’t know what to say do they?

‘But Mark took it really bad and kept saying, ‘do you think we did something wrong’. I said ‘no Mark’. Anyway I had to go in the next day to have the baby removed.’

In November 2021, Linda spoke of her baby loss once again on the ITV panel show.

She said: ‘I got pregnant for a third time which I was excited about. After the three month scan, it felt strange and not like the other pregnancies.

‘The doctor said we can’t find a heartbeat. Mark was window cleaning and popped in to see how the scan was going. 

‘Knowing the child is dead inside you, you have to go home and come back the next day to have suction.   

‘Its really horrible to talk about because you bump into people and they say sorry which brings it up again.’
