Jorgie Porter broke down in tears as she opened up about her baby plans for the future following after devastating quadruplets miscarriage in 2021.

The Hollyoaks actress ,36, has son Forest, 18 months, with fiancé Oliver Piotrowski and while she is keen to think about having more kids, her partner is more hesitant because of what they have been through. 

Speaking on Wednesday's episode of ITVBe's Drama Queens, she explained: 'For me, talking about babies, I'm like "yes, let's"'. 

'But Oliver, it's a bit more of a tentative subject because he obviously knows the past situations, what we went through, also the risks.

'I was high risk. I could have literally died, and the doctors were telling him that…'

'Oh, I get sad, because I think about him. Also, I've got no one else to talk to about it.' 

In August 2021,  the couple discovered during their 14-week scan that Jorgie had lost the quadruplets they had conceived naturally and in February they learnt of their second miscarriage at six weeks into the pregnancy - on the day of their engagement party. 

The former I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! contestant explained that she has never met anyone in her situation before.

But, she is perhaps 'more upset' about her pregnancy losses now as she mourns what she could have had. 

She said: 'Because I've had no one go through… I never met another quad mum, and I'm actually probably a bit more upset for the loss of them now. 

'Whereas at the time, it made more sense, but… it's… when you think, 'aw, there could have been a football team.'

Jorgie began playing Theresa McQueen in Hollyoaks in 2008 and left the role in 2016, but returned in 2020 and has been on-screen since. 

She now appears in Drama Queens, which follows actresses such as Coronation Street's, Ellie Leach and Brooke Vincent as well as Emmerdale's Laura Norton and EastEnders legend Rita Simons navigate their everyday lives with soap stardom. 

Jorgie previously admitted that she felt 'lucky' to be able to confide in friends and while she will never be above to truly get over what happened, is aware that without the miscarriages, she wouldn't have her son Forest now.

'If it had not happened, I wouldn’t be mum to Forest. When he’s older I’ll definitely tell him about our lost babies miscarriages and got through the other side.'

She told The Mirror: 'I felt very lucky to be able to speak to friends who have suffered miscarriages and got through the other side. 

'I don’t think I can ever move away from what happened. It’s about progression. If I talk about Forest it’s important I don’t ignore what happened. 

The actress noted at the time that the miscarriage was the worst 'pain' she had ever been through.

But she intends to explain to Forest exactly what happened when he is older.
