Love Island UK Star Amy Hart Opens Up About Two Heartbreaking Miscarriages as She and Husband Sam Rason Prepare to Welcome Baby No. 2 in 2026
In a moving announcement that blends joy with vulnerability, former Love Island UK contestant Amy Hart revealed that she and her husband, Sam Rason, are expecting their second child together. The news comes following a deeply personal journey marked by both celebration and heartbreak. In a video posted on Instagram on November 9, 2025, Amy shared images of the couple and their two-year-old son, Stanley, enjoying a pumpkin patch outing. Dressed in a knit dress and showing a clearly visible baby bump, Amy smiled through the camera while announcing: “Sam & I are over-the-moon to share … we’re expecting again.”
What makes the announcement all the more poignant is the openness with which Amy discussed the emotional toll that preceded this moment. She disclosed that the road to this pregnancy has been longer and more anxious than the first, noting that she and Sam had suffered two miscarriages in the past year. “This time the journey has been longer. After two heartbreaking miscarriages in the last year, we’re both very excited, yet the anxiety and nerves are hard to settle,” she wrote in her caption.
Stanley, their son, apparently couldn’t contain his excitement either. Amy wrote with amusement that he’s been loudly telling friends and strangers that “Mummy has a baby in her tummy!” and that he “has also decided he has a baby in his tummy too!” The family is already looking ahead to Christmas feeling “extra magical” and to a “new family chapter beginning in 2026.”
Amy, who first came into the public eye during Season 5 of Love Island in 2019, has since carved out a life beyond the villa. Her journey toward expanding her family reflects a candid dialogue about fertility, parenthood and emotional resilience. Back in 2021, she opted to freeze her eggs after being warned by doctors about the risk of early menopause — a decision she revealed in interviews.
In April 2025, Amy spoke to the UK outlet Closer about her mindset as she tried for a second child. “We are trying for a second baby at the moment, so I’ve got all my ovulation sticks and supplements. I’m reading a book about fertility and following all the advice. I’m making small lifestyle changes to get baby-ready,” she said at the time.
When she and Sam married in September 2024 in Spain, the couple expressed hopes of welcoming more children in the future rather than one and done. At that time, Amy joked she wanted four children, while Sam thought maybe more. But this second pregnancy — coming on the heels of trauma — underscores how much each new step means to them now.
In the Instagram comments, Sam responded with warmth and openness to the journey they’ve shared. “I can’t wait for our family to grow again,” he wrote. “It definitely has been an anxious journey for us both over the last 10 months, and I still feel it each day that passes. I love being a father and watching you grow as a mother. And to see Stanley become a big brother will be a special experience. Love you millions xx.”
It is striking how Amy made the decision to wait to share the news publicly until she felt ready — acknowledging both the joy and the risk, the excitement and the still-lurking anxiety. She admitted that the visible bump finally made it hard to hide anymore, but she only felt comfortable telling her followers after the couple had processed those fears themselves. This transparency has resonated with many who understand that pregnancy news is often more complex than a simple announcement.
What emerges from Amy’s journey is a portrait of strength layered with sensitivity. She could have glossed over the miscarriages, but instead she chose to speak honestly about them — offering perhaps a sense of solidarity to anyone who’s walked a similar path in silence. By doing so, she reminds us that for many couples, building a family is as much about healing and hope as it is about celebration.
A former reality-TV star might never have been expected to lead conversations about fertility treatment, miscarriage, and second-time pregnancy anxiety so candidly. Yet Amy has used her platform not just to share updates, but to humanize what so many parents experience behind closed doors. Her voice, grounded now in motherhood, carries both vulnerability and empowerment.
Looking ahead, the Hart-Rason family seems to be embracing this next chapter with open hearts. For Stanley, the prospect of being a big brother represents a shift in his world — and for Amy and Sam, the arrival of baby number two will undoubtedly mark a new rhythm of daily life, love and parenthood. As Amy reflected, “Christmas with our little man feels extra magical this year, and then a new family chapter begins in 2026.”
Of course, challenges may remain. Pregnancy after miscarriage often comes with heightened anxiety, and Amy acknowledged those “nerves” still persist. But the way she is embracing the journey — the highs, the lows, the waiting, the hoping — suggests she is determined to move forward thoughtfully and bravely. For anyone watching from the outside, the message is clear: joy and grief can sit side-by-side, and sharing the full story can lend strength not only to the individual but to countless others navigating similar terrain.
In short, this announcement from Amy Hart isn’t simply about expecting baby number two. It’s about the resilience required to get here, the family they have already built, and the gentle excitement of what’s to come. It’s a story of love surviving adversity, of a couple navigating parenthood and growth, of a boy anticipating his role as big brother, and most of all of a woman extending her circle of care and commitment.
As we await updates on the baby’s arrival in 2026, Amy and Sam’s journey remains a compelling reminder that every new life often emerges from not just celebration, but from hope renewed and wounds healed.
