Leontien Zijlaard-Van Moorsel suffers miscarriage

Olympic champion Leontien Zijlaard-Van Moorsel has suffered a pregnancy miscarriage after three months.

The loss is an enormous setback for Zijlaard-Van Moorsel (36) and her husband Michael Zijlaard. The couple had been trying for two years for a pregnancy. Van Moorsel had passed up an opportunity in August to compete in the TV show Dancing on Ice due to fear of falling and harming her unborn child.
