Myleene Klass has praised her fiancé Simon Motson for having a vasectomy, following her four miscarriages.
The 44 year old shared the news with her followers as she uploaded a video of Simon exiting the doctors after the sterilising procedure on Instagram on Wednesday.
Myleene has been open about the four miscarriages she suffered before welcoming her three year old son Apollo, shared with Simon, and spoke in her latest post about the toll her body had taken as a result, leading to the decision of Simon’s vasectomy.
She wrote on Instagram Stories: “If you’ve followed me for a while, you’ll know about my story to get my rainbow baby Apollo and the four heart-breaking miscarriages I suffered before I finally forgot to hold him in my arms.
“The amount of drugs, the toll took on my body, my head and my heart, the after effects, it’s a lot on the woman and men often admit to feeling helpless.
“Whilst childbirth is undeniably all on the woman, birth control should be on both parties. My doctor said my body needed a rest, so…”
Myleene shared in the video she posted of Simon following his procedure that he agreed that her body has “been through enough” and it was now “his turn”, as he went ahead with the vasectomy.
She told her 414,000 followers that she wanted to post the video to highlight that having a vasectomy is “not emasculating”, but a respectful decision.
She captioned beside the clip: “My stories have blown up so putting this here for the menfolk to see that it’s empowering not emasculating to do this for your partner and we respect you all the more for it.
“The drugs I took to keep our son after losing four babies and the toll it took on my body followed by further birth control, it’s such a lot. It can’t all be on the woman.
“In Sim’s words, ‘You’ve done your bit’ now it’s my turn.’”
Myleene continued: “Before he went in, I cried as it felt ‘final’ (it’s actually reversible) and then I felt admiration and like I’m in a real, grown up partnership. Love and respect him so much.
“Not all hero’s wear capes. Some wear a dressing and really tight pants for two days."
Myleene and Simon got engaged in September 2020, and both have children from previous relationships.
