This post deals with stillbirth and might be triggering for some readers.
Weâve got a couple of new Goggleboxers on this yearâs season of Gogglebox Australia, and itâs been an emotional introduction for Melburnian Tim Lai.
Tim and his sister Leanne have replaced Angie and Yvie on the show and Kylie Kwongâs story about her son Lucky on the ABCâs Anhâs Brush With Fame struck a chord.
In the episode, Kwong talked about losing her son in utero and how she âcried for 10 hours straightâ after being told he wouldnât survive.
Hereâs some of Kylie Kwongâs episode. Post continues after video.
Kwong told Do about the emotional six days she and her wife had while their son was still inside Nellâs womb.
As Kwong told Do about saying goodbye to her son, the entire cast of Gogglebox was in tears. Sarah-Marie who is currently pregnant with her first child sobbed uncontrollably, âI canât even imagine what they went through,â she said.
Kwong told Do of her final words to Lucky: âI said, âI really love feeding you.â I said, âI want you to know that your mother is the most amazing person in the world and that you are very, very loved.â I said to him that, âI want you to know that we have always loved you,â and I promised him that Nell and I would always look after each other.â

That was a hard episode to watch but it made me admire Kylie Kwong even more (and Tim last night).
The article only gives Kwong's father's initial reaction to her coming out as gay - the other article summarising the whole episode here on Mamamia has the beautiful part where he comes into her bedroom a few days later and says "Oh my darling I canât do it to you, youâre my baby. Youâre my little girl and I just canât do it to you. I just canât, I canât. Even though I donât understand your way of life I canât throw you out" And they have a great relationship until his death in 2006 from prostate cancer.
