A large vase of flowers was seen being delivered to singer Jessie J’s house a day after the star revealed the heartbreaking news she suffered a pregnancy loss.
The singer admitted she’s suffered ‘the hardest year’ of her life as she performed a gig just hours after miscarrying a baby, tearing up on stage, but had earlier insisted she would be taking to the stage.
Showing so many are thinking of her, the 33-year-old star received a gorgeous bouquet of blooms on Thursday, as fans continued to share their love for the Bang Bang hitmaker on social media.
Jessie, who was seen heading to a hair salon in West Hollywood after her gig, announced her miscarriage Wednesday morning one day after learning about it as she vowed to perform her show at the Hotel Cafe in West Hollywood that night.
While on stage, the British star opened up about her ordeal and said in footage obtained by TMZ: ‘I decided to have a baby by myself and by a miracle it worked for a while…this year has been hands down the hardest year I’ve ever had to get through…
‘I lost my baby and I know I’m going to be okay.’

She added to the audience: ‘What I do know is that I want to sing tonight. Not because I’m avoiding the grief or the process, but because I know singing tonight will help me.’
The star has been praised for her bravery in sharing her heartbreaking ordeal, with Paloma Faith recalling her own miscarriage and a charity applauding the singer for making others ‘feel less alone’.
Earlier that day, she had posted a photo of her holding a pregnancy test and explained that she had decided to have the baby on her own.
Jessie began: ‘Yesterday morning I was laughing with a friend saying “seriously though how am I going to get through my gig in LA tomorrow night without telling the whole audience I am pregnant”.
‘By yesterday afternoon I was dreading the thought of getting through the gig without breaking down…
‘After going for my 3rd scan and being told there was no longer a heartbeat 💔.
‘This morning. I feel like I have no control of my emotions. I may regret posting this. I may not. I actually don’t know.’
The singer was told years ago that she’d struggle to conceive a child but she was always determined to become a mother.
She continued: ‘To get pregnant was a miracle in itself and an experience I will never forget and I know I will have again.
