News about Rebecca Adlington

Rebecca Adlington marked one year since losing daughter Harper in a devastating miscarriage with a poem written by husband Andrew Parsons on Sunday. The Olympic medalist, 35, said that while her family talk about the little one 'every single day' she had 'battled' with how to best honour the heartbreaking anniversary. Rebecca and husband Andrew are already parents to son Albie, three, and the swimmer's daughter Summer, nine, from a previous relationship. 

During Tuesday's instalment of the ITV programme, the Olympian swimmer, 35, appeared as a guest on the panel alongside host Charlene White, Janet Street-Porter, Brenda Edwards, and Katie Piper.  The Olympic medalist, who has been publicly open about her miscarriage in October 2023, revealed to the panellists that she is 'pleased' she was honest and open with the public as she believes speaking about it helped many women. 

Swimming gold medalist Rebecca Adlington has revealed the heartbreak she went through with her family after the death of her stillborn daughter last year. The former Olympian told the Sunday Times she 'hated my body' after her third child, Harper, was stillborn at 20 weeks in October. She also 'couldn't help blaming myself' after finding out her baby had died in the womb at the 20-week scan, before then having to give birth by induced labour. Adlington, 35, appeared on television screens this summer as a BBC swimming commentator for the Paris Olympics and won gold for the 400m and 800m freestyle in Beijing in 2008 and bronzes in the same events London 2012. Speaking about the traumatic incident, she said: 'I couldn't help blaming myself. You analyse everything, but I'd done everything by the book - sleeping on my left side, not lying on my back, not eating this and that, no alcohol - and then this still happened.

The likes of Gabby Logan , Rebecca Adlington and Dames Denise Lewis and Jessica Ennis-Hill have impressed viewers with their elegant and stylish displays in Paris. So much so, outfits sported by the BBC pundits have almost sold out after making an appearance at the swimming arena and the Stade de France - and one designer suggested they'd never seen a 'surge of orders' quite like it. Raishma Islam revealed how her namesake line was unprepared for the reaction that Rebecca wearing one of their dresses would have after she wore the ensemble to present the men's 4x200 swimming relay last week. She told The Telegraph: 'We started getting a surge of orders, and wondered if there had been a glitch on the website. She has worn our dresses in the past but we've never had this kind of reaction.'

A nasty surprise for Becky Adlington, who opened the bin in her hotel apartment and found a mouse inside.

The London 2012 Olympics are seen by many as some of Britain's most glorious days - with memories of a warm summer shining bright on the country's sporting promise.
