Kelsey said: “Straight away we called the ambulance, they took nine minutes to come, and when they arrived – the only way I can describe it – was like I was in a film and it wasn’t real and it wasn’t happening to me.

“Because they came in and they took him from me. I only ever got to hold Phoenix for nine minutes.

“That’s the only time I got to hold him. They then called the police, the police arrived, and they said it was like a crime scene”.

Kelsey, who had carried her son to 39 weeks before giving birth, told how she had asked the emergency services to “calm down” as her two other children were present as the heartbreaking incident unfolded.

GMB host Susanna Reid asked “so they were treating you as if you were a criminal and they are treating it as a crime scene which is a total lack of compassion and care.

“The antithesis of how you should have been treated in that moment”.

Kelsey continued: “I just wanted love and kindness and I don’t think that’s a lot to actually ask”.

Kelsey said she was “so angry and upset” when she recalls her emotions at the time and added: “I literally get goosebumps because I was so upset and angry how they treated me and I pleaded”.

She then told how protocol had not been followed by the bereavement team, as Susanna pointed out there was a “lingering suspicion” Kelsey was responsible for his passing.

Though Kelsey told how she had bittersweet “evidence” that no crime had been committed as they had been filming the whole delivery.

She told the show: “This is why I have had to process it and I know that people have not been ready for the story”.

Kelsey explained she had to advocate for herself and her “saving grace” was Tom, after previously having to speak to brain surgeons across the world about his brain condition.

She the told that, if she had not felt able to do this, she would have felt “I had done something wrong”.

The Met police told GMB in a statement that describing the situation as a crime scene was “inappropriate”.

She previously admitted that that grieving Phoenix was “harder than grieving Tom” as she spoke on the

She shared on the podcast: “It was so hard. I think with Phoenix, it was harder than it was with Tom.

“I think because they [her kids] were so much younger, it’s like I could just be like, ‘daddy wasn’t coming back.’

“And you know, when I said about the angels taking daddy, ‘we won’t see daddy again’, it was like they accepted that and we sort of moved on.

“And now as time’s gone on, they asked me more questions about their dad and stuff, but that initial I suppose with Bod as well. He was 18 months old. It wasn’t a question that he even thought.”

At the time of Aurelia was around three, and Georgia pointed out: “They were almost ages where they didn’t understand.

“So you almost didn’t have to explain it too much. You obviously have to explain it, but it’s very different to having a child that completely understands, knows what death is.”
