Kate said she was 'terrified' to tell her older kids the tragic news (@xkateferdinand/Instagram)'We both tried to pretend it wasn't happening and it was fine. It was the longest walk ever to the hospital. I felt like I knew and someone was preparing me. I just had to look at the lady's face. It was awful, I just burst into tears.
She added: "I wasn't prepared for what happens afterwards. We had planned how to tell everyone. We had filmed the kids and were going to go home and put it on social media.
"I just wanted to get out of the room but also thought of leaving the room terrified me because I have to go and tell the children and go home and act normal.
"It was a Friday and Lorenz's birthday on the Sunday and then surgery on the Monday. It was the longest weekend of my life."
