The heartbreaking news came weeks after she discovered she was pregnant and just two months after her ex-boyfriend Alistair committed suicide.
Former businessman Alistair, who suffered from anxiety and depression, took his own life aged 35 in a friend’s flat while he was seeing his three daughters.
He and Jessica had run fashion business Famous Frocks together, but split in 2014 when he was convicted of money laundering and given a 15-month suspended sentence.
