Made in Chelsea star Louise Thompson triggers parliamentary debate on maternity care

A petition led by TV star Louise Thompson has triggered a debate in parliament on maternity services following her own traumatic experience.

The Made in Chelsea star was left with a range of symptoms, including PTSD and the autoimmune disease lupus, after almost dying during the delivery of her son Leo in 2021.

Ms Thompson told Sky's Sarah-Jane Mee she will carry on campaigning on maternity care because "I'm just so angry" and "women deserve a safe and dignified birth."
