Kym Marsh has praised her "incredible" children for "looking after [her]" when she lost her son Archie.
The former \'Coronation Street\' actress has thanked her son David, 24, and daughter Emilie Cunliffe, 23, after they took care of her following the tragedy, when she and her ex-husband Jamie Lomas\' son died minutes after he was born 18 weeks premature in 2009.
Kym - who also has daughter Polly, eight, with Jamie - said: "The stillbirth story I was involved in was obviously hard for me as it mirrored a trauma I\'d been through in my own life.

"I am a mummy to an angel baby and I am forever grateful to have had him in my life no matter how short a time."
Kym also called for others to help her "break the silence of baby loss".
She added: "Let\'s stand together, lift the taboo and break the silence of babyloss. Sending love to all. (sic)"
