Beyoncé reveals she had preeclampsia while pregnant with twins

Beyoncé said that the last pregnancy was very difficult for her. During pregnancy, she almost lost her life and one of the twins.

In her new Netflix documentary film Homecoming, out now, the 37-year-old singer opens up about the struggles that she went through while carrying her twins.

“My body went through more than I knew it could,” Beyoncé admitted. Preeclampsia is a pregnancy condition that can cause serious complications and is characterized by high blood pressure.

“I was supposed to do Coachella the year prior but I got pregnant unexpectedly,” she recalled in Homecoming, as footage of her displaying her baby bump played.

“And it ended up being twins which was even more of a surprise.” The singer added: “In the womb, one of my babies’ hearts paused a few times so I had to get an emergency C-section."
