The Block's Jess Eva reveals she suffered a miscarriage: 'Crying on the inside'
Triple M host and former The Block and I'm A Celeb star Jess Eva has broken down live on air as she revealed she recently suffered a miscarriage after falling pregnant with her third child.
The 37-year-old shared the news on Tuesday, revealing she and partner Norm Hogan had wanted another baby "for a very long time" and that she was devastated by the loss.
"Over the Christmas holidays, we were very blessed. Norm and I found out we were pregnant," Eva began through tears. "When I was in lockdown with Covid, I started bleeding and unfortunately I lost the baby. It hasn't happened to me before."
Because she had Covid at the time, Jess was unable to leave isolation and visit a doctor in person.

Jana Hocking added, "You so much my strong, courageous, smart, gorgeous friend."
