From BBC News

Former EastEnder Elaine Lordan's baby son has died just days after his first birthday, her agent has said.
James Manuel had suffered from a diaphragmatic hernia, a serious medical condition which affects one in every 3,000 births.

Lordan and her husband Peter Manuel - who married last Thursday - were said to be distraught at James's "totally unexpected" death on Sunday.

Her agent Kate Whaley asked that they be left to grieve in private.

How tragic. And just before Christmas too. How much heartache can one person stand? This is so incredibly sad. My heart bleeds for her, it really does.

I saw that on Ceefax before I picked up the paper. My heart goes out to her and her husband.

It is very, very tragic. Apparently she lost her mother during the summer as well. I hope she has a better 2006. It is terrible though, just after her wedding and just before Christmas. It is terrible as she had problems while in EE and after sorting them out this happens.
