Scarlett Moffatt, beloved for her charm on 'I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!', recently shared a week filled with emotional highs and lows. The reality star, who is currently pregnant, faced the tragic loss of not one but two close family members. Scarlett took to Instagram to share the heartbreaking news with her followers.
The 35-year-old revealed that her grandfather passed away, a loss that came just days after the death of her mother-in-law, Janice. Scarlett shared, "Unfortunately, more sad news for our family this week. My grandad Moffatt has sadly passed away." The heartfelt message continued with gratitude towards the support from fans during these trying times.
“Me, Scott and all our family really appreciate all of the love and kindness you've shown us following the loss of Janice and now my grandad. Thank you so much.”
Despite the sorrowful events, Scarlett found a glimmer of joy when she shared an update about her unborn son. "In the middle of such a heartbreaking week, we went to see our little boy today. Seeing him wriggling away and knowing he's doing well gave us a little moment to smile when we really needed it," she expressed.
The couple had announced their second pregnancy earlier this year in a joyful Instagram post featuring their son, Jude. The post read, "We honestly can’t believe we’re writing this… After everything, we feel unbelievably lucky to be able to say… our family is growing."
Scarlett has openly discussed her journey with pregnancy, including past struggles. During 'I’m A Celebrity', she spoke candidly about previous losses and the emotional toll they took on her and her partner, Scott. "We tried for a long time and had some losses, and it’s not nice, is it. And because no one talks about it, you think something is wrong with you," she shared.
Her resilience and openness have endeared her to fans, who continue to support her through her ups and downs. Scarlett's story is a poignant reminder of the strength and hope that can be found even in the darkest times.
