Celebrity Stillborn Burial Investigation

TV personality Kim Woodburn, star of the show 'How Clean Is Your House?' is currently under investigation by police following her admission that she buried her stillborn baby in a park. She revealed the startling fact in her new autobiography Unbeaten, which was serialised in some newspapers last week.

The cleaner said that she gave birth to a baby four months prematurely, and admitted burying the child herself in a local park. 'I put the baby on the ground and then knelt down and started digging with the spoon,' Kim writes in her book. 'As I gouged the earth, tears streamed down my face. I brushed them away with my dirty hands. When I felt I had dug down deep enough, I lowered my precious little boy into the hole and wrapped the towel around him before slowly replacing the earth. When the job was done, I still couldn 't leave.'
