Olympic gold medallist Rebecca Adlington has shared a sweet message with her husband after suffering a devastating miscarriage last week.

The swimmer had been in hospital with her husband Andy Parsons for her 12-week scan when she was told that she had miscarried and needed emergency surgery.

Just days after the heartbreaking incident, Rebecca, 33, took to social media to wish Andy a happy wedding anniversary with a special message for him.

Posting a photo from their wedding day last year, Rebecca wrote: "Happy anniversary @andrewparsons5. You are the love of my life, my everything.

"I know I can get through anything with you by my side. You are simply the best."

The emotional post was quickly flooded with comments from fans and famous friends.

English freestyle swimmer Joanne Jackson wrote: "Love you guys", while TV presenter Tonia Buxton simply commented: "Love, love, love."

One fan added: "Happy anniversary to you both", and another raved: "So glad you have each other’s support at what must be a very difficult time."

Rebecca announced on Saturday (28 August) that she'd had a miscarriage and had to be treated for sepsis.

Explaining the situation to fans, she had written: "On Tuesday me and Andy went to hospital for our 12 week scan only to discover we’ve had a miscarriage which resulted in emergency surgery.

"I managed to leave hospital Thursday only to be readmitted Friday. After a day of treating sepsis, a kidney infection and a fever I’m slowly on the mend. Long way to go but I’m in the right place.

"I can’t thank the hospitals and the staff enough, been so supportive. It’s such a devastating time but important in times like these we remember we aren’t alone and have so much support."

Addressing her husband Andy, she added: "You have been my rock this week. Same with family and friends. We haven’t managed to process it all yet but I know with their support we’ll get through it.

"Once I’m able to leave hospital I’m extremely grateful I get to go home and give my 2 little ones the best hugs!"

Rebecca shares her daughter Summer, seven, with her ex-husband and fellow swimmer Harry Needs, and her son Albie, one, with her husband Andy.

The mum-of-two has been a household name ever since her double gold-medal win in the 2008 Olympic Games in Beijing. Since then, she has been awarded an OBE, taken part in the 13th series of I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here, and worked as a BBC commentator during the Olympics and Commonwealth games.
