The news that broke last night of Amanda Holden miscarrying after 7 months is very sad. It must be a very trying time for her and her family. And as Dr Adam Kay tweeted earlier, thoughts also to the medical staff who had to break the news to her.

My only question is should it have been on thee BBC News front page? Is Amanda Holden such an important figure in the UK to merit this.

The answer, obviously, is yes. It’s just that I don’t think so.

Lets hope the media give her some space and time.
