“Please can all progressive politicians, take this moment to force the government do the right thing,” she wrote via Twitter on Sunday, March 15. “Their conduct so far has been nothing short of criminal. Be courageous and push for everything we know is good, necessary and guided by love.”
Church is one of many pregnant stars being vocal during the coronavirus pandemic. Stars including Katy Perry and Nikki Bella and Brie Bella have also urged fans to stay home if they are sick to prevent the spread of illness worldwide.
The British singer’s pregnancy news came nearly three years after she suffered a miscarriage in 2017, just months before she married Jonathan Powell.
“Charlotte and Jonny are very sad to announce that they lost their baby,” the singer revealed in a statement on her Twitter account on July 26, 2017. “Now is a time for grieving and being together as a family. We kindly ask everyone to respect that peace.”
The couple tied the knot three months later in October 2017. At the time, the “Men of Harlech” artist shared a photo of herself and her groom via social media, writing, “Seriously happy” alongside the image.
The new baby will be the first for the couple, and the third little one for Church.
