"I’m still grateful you chose us for your journey .. #Theo.”
In 2011, when she was seven months pregnant, a scan revealed that Theo’s heart had stopped.
Amanda, who also has two daughters Hollie, 16, and 10-year-old Lexi with her husband Chris Hughes, underwent a caesarean at West Middlesex University Hospital.
Amanda previously trained as a midwife there for the ITV documentary called Out Of My Depth in 2009.
Her devastating experience prompted her to set up Theo’s Hope Appeal in 2018, as part of Baby Loss Awareness Week, to provide special bereavement counsellors at all UK maternity units.
Friends and followers rushed to send their support.
This Morning and Loose Women star Ruth Langsford said: "Sending you love & a huge hug."
Her Heart co-star and Pussycat Doll Ashley Roberts sent her love.
And Myleene Klass commented: "Thinking of you Mandy x"
