Lily Allen has opened up about one of her darkest days when she gave birth to a 6-month-old stillborn son in 2010.

The 29-year-old singer said that she thinks it's difficult for anybody regardless of what world they live in and it was the most unfortunate thing that can ever happen to a person, Us Magazine reported.

The 'Smile' singer added that she was "very fortunate" that she has a loving partner Sam Cooper to go home to and share that experience with.

Allen continued that there are 17 stillbirths in the UK every day and there are many women that go home and they don't have that support, they have to go home and deal with that on their own and so she is kind of in a "count-my-blessings" scenario rather than feeling sorry for herself.
