Yazz Maalik (Haiesha Mistry) was left devastated in Hollyoaks as, after finding out that her pregnancy was ectopic, a doctor informed her that she would be unable to conceive naturally.
The journalist, as viewers know, discovered earlier this month that she was pregnant, news which left Tom Cunningham (Ellis Hollins) on cloud nine, excited at the prospect of becoming a dad again.
Yazz, however, wasn’t quite sure how she felt about the pregnancy, confiding in Peri Lomax (Ruby O’Donnell) that she was worried about breaking Tom’s heart with the truth – that she didn’t want to have a baby.
After some words of encouragement from Peri, Yazz decided it was time to tell Tom exactly how she felt but, after doing so, tragedy struck, as she doubled over in pain, collapsing to the floor.
Monday’s (June 12) first look offering of the Channel 4 soap saw Yazz rushed to hospital, where emergency surgery was swiftly performed by doctors.
Tom was worried sick about his wife, especially when he found out that surgery was needed, and heartbreaking scenes ensued soon afterwards.
Yazz and Tom were told that the pregnancy was ectopic, with doctors left with no choice but to end the pregnancy while in surgery, which left the couple absolutely devastated.
Tom left the hospital room and headed outside for some fresh air, desperately trying to process the news, while Maxine Minniver (Nikki Sanderson) offered Yazz some support.

There was, however, more heartbreak in store.
Tom and Yazz shared a heartfelt moment together, with the former promising to stay by the latter’s side no matter what, when the surgeon who performed the surgery returned for another chat.
‘During surgery I attempted to repair the damaged Fallopian tube’, he said. ‘It wasn’t possible so the tube was removed. As I’m afraid was the adjacent ovary, which was also badly damaged.
There doctor explained that he noticed an ‘abnormality’ in the other ovary, which is ‘abnormally smaller,’ with another ultrasound confirming his suspicions that Yazz will likely be unable to conceive naturally again.
Tom and Yazz were left speechless, struggling to process the news.
