Screaming mum's horrified response after finding her dead son in a 'baby bouncer' in funeral boss' living room
-
Amie Upton, 38, caused the boy's mum severe distress when she walked in on the scene, according to a BBC investigation.
The mother, Zoe Ward, said she was terrified and angered after finding her son Bleu's body in a baby bouncer in Amie's living room.
Zoe, 32, added: “I rang my mum and I'm saying, ‘This ain't right’.
“I was screaming down the phone [saying], 'He can't stay here'.”
She claimed there was another dead baby nearby on the sofa.
Zoe asked Florrie's Army - run by Amie - to arrange Bleu's funeral, and his body was collected from hospital.
Zoe was shocked at what she saw as she visited Amie's home the next day.
Another mum, whose stillborn child was in Amie's care and was “really smelly”, told the BBC: “If I told somebody of this story they'd think it was a horror film.”
Amie, from Leeds, told our sister paper the Mirror that claims about her are ridiculous.
She added she started doing baby funerals after losing a child following a violent attack.
