Gemma Collins was left in tears as she revealed that she had to terminate a pregnancy after being informed that her unborn baby was 'intersex'.
The 43-year-old reality TV star, who shot to fame on The Only Way is Essex, has previously opened up about her heart-wrenching journey towards motherhood. In a frank discussion on the Everything I Know About Me podcast, Gemma spoke about having to once terminate a pregnancy.
The former Celebrity Big Brother contestant recalled finding out she was pregnant a few years back. She shared on the recent episode of the podcast: "They said to me 'something's not right'."
Gemma later added: "They said to me 'oh your baby could be, from looking at it, [intersex]'.She further remarked: "You can imagine I didn't know what the word was.
"I had to look it up. I'd never been taught about [being intersex].
"So that was a real shock." Gemma, reports the Mirror, continued to explain that there were concerns for the baby at the time, stating: "Then they advised me 'you need to have a termination'."
The NHS describes 'intersex' as a term used to describe 'differences in sex development' (DSD). The NHS description reads "[DSD] is a group of rare conditions involving genes, hormones and reproductive organs, including genitals. It means a person's sex development is different to most other people's."
The NHS adds that there are "many different types" of DSD, many of which don't require medical treatment beyond understanding the child's development and having appropriate expectations as they mature.
At a time already fraught with difficulties, Gemma reveals her pregnancy was a deeply sad episode, remarking it was "just not meant to be".
