Aaron Ramsdale has opened his heart and revealed for the first time that his wife Georgina suffered a miscarriage last January during her flight back to the UK. The couple at that time was expecting their first child and they took advantage of the days after the World Cup and the rest that the soccer players had to travel abroad. However, When they were returning from a six-hour plane ride, Georgina suffered that miscarriage, which was a blow to both of them..
“There are things that happen in our lives that the public has no idea about., and last year was a roller coaster of emotions for me and my family,” the Arsenal goalkeeper wrote in an open letter to The Players’ Tribune. “There is no way to describe the pain of that six hour flight back to London, not even now. (…). I just want people to know that they are not alone if they are going through the same thing.”
Ramsdale, broken with grief, opened up to very few people about what he was suffering that month of January: “I didn’t tell a lot of people what happened. Only my family, my colleagues and of course Mikel Arteta. He was fantastic at everything. Even in the middle of the title race, with so much pressure at the club, he asked me if I needed some time off to take care of everything. Mikel did everything possible so that my family and I were well.
And it is that Ramsdale had to play a game just three days after his partner suffered the abortion. And it was not just any game, but it was key, against Tottenham, for the fight for the championship. The goalkeeper chose to play because football has always been his escape route: “I told the coach that I wanted to play”.
pregnant again
Luckily for Aaron and Georgina, they didn’t have to wait too long to relive the excitement of pregnancy. Recently both have announced on social networks that they are expecting a babya gesture that they did not make at the beginning of 2023 with news that only their close circle knew about before the terrible outcome.
