Strictly Come Dancing star Kym Marsh remembered her baby boy Archie as well.

Kym shared with fans: "Today is baby loss awareness day. Today is a day to get people talking, and to remember all of our babies that were taken too soon. I am a mother who lost her child. I am one in 4. We are a family who lost a piece of us. I know that pain and I also know how important it is to talk, to listen, to share.

"Tonight at 7pm we will light a candle for all of those precious babies who were taken too soon. They will never be forgotten and in their names we will continue to make change.

"Archie, I promise to always do you proud. In our hearts and our voices your name and memory will live on. We love you always and forever."
