Singer Lily Allen says comments on social networking websites following her miscarriage in 2010, left her "devastated" as she found out how people can be "horrible".

The 28-year-old, who has two children, 23-month-old Ethel and 10-month-old Marnie with husband Sam Cooper, lost her baby when she was six months pregnant as she became ill with a viral infection.

She found it difficult to cope with people's comments during her tough days, reports femalefirst.co.uk.

"I couldn't get my head round how people could be so horrible. But I learned pretty quickly that I was very vulnerable, and this (the internet) wasn't the place to spend my time. I still think about it 25 times a day," Allen said.
