Jessie J candidly says miscarriage was ‘saddest and loneliest time of my life’

Jessie J has revealed that her miscarriage last year led to the "saddest and loneliest" time of her life.

The Los Angeles based Do It Like A Dude singer, who announced the devastating news in November 2021, opened about her heartbreak as she returned to the stage in the UK.

After revealing she was having the "best January ever", the 33 year old candidly told concertgoers: "So I was pregnant but not anymore.

"I am probably in the happiest place I have ever been, believe it or not. My perspective on life has changed completely," Jessie, full name Jessica Cornish, said.


Jessie continued: "The day it happened, a man came up to me in the street. I was by myself and crying. He said, 'I don't know you, and I don't know what is happening with you right now, but I know you should share it with other people'.

"That is why I do what I do. So to anyone who has been through that, or near someone who has, I am so sorry. There is no other way to explain it than just the saddest, loneliest thing."

Speaking further at her intimate acoustic show at Lafayette in London, the Price Tag songstress was keen on raising further awareness of life after miscarriage.

"No one talks about it enough. What we talk about isn't what really happens," she said.

"I am grateful I was raised by two incredible people who taught me to find the blessing in the pain. I am grateful for the perspective I have. Every day we just have to live and live harder."

Jessie added that her sister "dropped everything" and flew out to the States to support her when she was told of her miscarriage ordeal.

Later in a post shared to her Instagram Story, Jessie reflected on her trip back to the UK.

"What a trip this has been. Think it's been the most realist, memorable, healing, joyful trip, I have ever had home," she wrote.

Announcing the news of her miscarriage in November 2021, Jessie said at the time: "After going for my 3rd scan and being told there was no longer a heartbeat. This morning.

"I feel like I have no control of my emotions. I may regret posting this. I may not. I actually don't know."

"What I do know is that I want to sing tonight. Not because I'm avoiding the grief or the process, but because I know singing tonight will help me."
