Lily Allen Suffers Miscarriage
The 22-year-old singer is "in a state of shock" after losing her baby. Allen had just returned from a vacation in the Maldives with her partner, musician Ed Simons of the Chemical Brothers.Allen's representative told The Sun, "We can confirm that Lily Allen has suffered a miscarriage. She and her partner Ed Simons will be making no further comment and we ask that their privacy be respected during this difficult time."
Her debut album, 'Alright, Still,' is nominated for a Grammy. She is expected to release its follow-up later this year.

:( I feel bad for her. I think mostly cause I kind of think she is a little mean. I mean lets face facts she makes it seem like all men are awful people.

I'm sorry for her, but she should not be having sexual relations with a "partner" in the first place. It's wrong.

My condolances to Lily at this difficult time for her..I've been there and I know that pain too well. I do, however, also agree with # 3 aerospacemajor.

I love how people around this board can say "I'm truly sorry for your loss" and in the very same sentence judge her because she has a 'partner.'

sorry BUT she shouldn't be having sex? what century do you live in? some compassion please. she had sex, she got pregnant and she wanted the baby. lots of other children get born into much less.

Having gone through this myself I know how shocking and horribly sad losing a pregnancy is. I don't know how far she was but this is why most women don't make an announcement until they are out of the first trimester.
And what's wrong with having a partner? That's just what the British call a serious boyfriend/girlfriend. What did that other poster think it meant? He was standing by her and they were both happy about the pregnancy. Can't complain about that.

Welcome to the sorrows that other people face; you are not the only one, ma'am.

I have to agree with several people.. she should not have been having sex with a "partner" I am a strong believer in getting married,or at least engaged before sex. Also,I feel bad for her though, because she still wanted the baby, and I think she could have provided a good life for it. She seems like she would've tamed down with a child. and a misscarriage is hard on anyone, even for someone who DOesnt want the baby.

I am so sad for her and her boyfriend. they wanted this baby. I wish her and her family my deepest sympathy and empathy.

I saw an interview where she wanted happy over the fact she was pregnant. Do we really know if it was a miscarriage or some thing else. I guess we will never know.

Anytime anyone loses a baby, it is tragic... don't make this about how the mom choses to live her life or what kind of person you THINK she is. A baby has died. Show some respect!!! I am very sorry for her loss and for any of the other posters who have lost children!!!

look at it this way she 21 got herwhole life to be a mother of a healthy child . some women dont even get a miscarrage. ther baron no one thinks about that

We all know what century it is. However, we still have only one Bible and one God. Sex outside of marriage is still wrong. It is no justification to say "everyone is doing it". First of all Not everyone is doing it and Second if everyone decided to kill themselves would you join in? Not likely.
And believe it or not a person can be empathetic and feel sorry for the loss of an unborn child and still recognize that she was amoral.

Afer suffering 2 miscarriages last year (1 earlier in 2007 and last almost 2 months ago), I know the pain she's feeling. I'm not a fan of her music nor do I care for her as an Artist, but I feel her pain. If she is in shock as the say she, I know her pain all too well.

SKYE NUMBER 13: I DON'T ENJOY KILLING MYSELF. I ENJOY HAVING SEX. SO GET OFF YOUR HIGH HORSE. PEOPLE LIKE YOU ARE THE BIGGEST SLUTS OUT THERE.
LIFE IS TOO SHORT TO WORRY ABOUT AMORAL. GROW UP.
AND IT'S NOT A BIG DEAL HAVING A MISCARRIAGE. ITS A WAY FOR WOMEN TO GET ATTENTION AND FLOWERS. GIVE IT UP AND TRY AGAIN.
aknickchick023at 1-18-2008
such sad news..I havent had a miscarriage so I cant possible know what shes going through but I can empathize with her..I know she really wanted the baby..poor thing!
magicaldreamz92at 1-18-2008
WHOAH! #9 what are you freakin retarded, sure in a miscarriage you haven't yet seen the child, but yet it is still a child, and would soon be a living breathing piece of you. Losing a child in anyway must be very hard to deal with whether youve seen it or not, and you make it sound like a miscarriage is like an abortion, they dont normally actually take the fetus or embryo out of you, most the time depending on how old it is it leaves you naturally, they dont just 'snap' it out of you, show some compassion... loss is not an easy thing to cope with even if they havent been born yet, and sometimes miscarriages means the woman may never be able to have a child... think about it that way, you cant always just "try again"
