I Only Found Out We Lost A Twin Because I Had A Dodgy Heart

Edith Bowman has revealed how her heart condition meant she discovered she had lost a twin during her first pregnancy.

The radio and TV host told how her pregnancy with 12-year-old son Rudy could have resulted in two babies.

Edith was diagnosed with a bicuspid aortic valve in 2004, a condition which affects blood flow in the heart.

The former Radio 1 presenter was sent for an early scan which initially revealed there were two embryos instead of one.

Edith, of Anstruther, Fife, said a later examination detected a single heartbeat.

The 47-year-old, who has sons Rudy and Spike, seven, with Editors frontman husband Tom Smith, said the couple have been open with their eldest son about the loss.
