Former Geordie Shore star Sophie Kasaei gave fans an update on social media on her fertility, as she revealed she ‘will not give up’ as she starts a new step in their journey
Former Geordie Shore star Sophie Kasaei said in a statement that she ‘will not give up’ following her fertility struggles as she issues an update to her followers. It comes after she tragically suffered a chemical pregnancy while she was trying to start a family with her boyfriend, Jordan Brook.
According to Healthline, a ‘chemical pregnancy is an early pregnancy loss that occurs shortly after implantation’. Since experiencing their loss, Sophie, 35, and Jordan have taken a new step in their journey to getting pregnant, as they have started Lymphocyte Immunisation Therapy (LIT).
The form of therapy, according to The Fertility and Gynaecology Academy, ‘involves analysing a patient’s immune system and administering appropriate immune therapy’. Sophie shared the news with her followers as she issued the update in a statement.
Taking to Instagram at the weekend, the reality star said: “After 28 months our fertility journey continues. Today we are heading to @fertilysis to start our first round of Lit therapy amongst other treatments. Our biggest leap forwards on our journey in what feels like forever.”

She added: “As a team we are taking every day, week and month as it comes. We will not give up. Thank you to every single friend, member of our families and everyone else who continues to reach out with kind words and support it really does mean the world. To those who are also in the same boat. Keep going. Keep communicating and keep exploring.”
Her latest step towards getting pregnant follows after Sophie shared how overjoyed she was to discover she had done a positive pregnancy test, however, the line disappeared.
Speaking on the Happy Mum, Happy Baby podcast with Giovanna Fletcher, Sophie shared her story and said: “You’re like, oh, I feel a bit sick today. My God, I’m pregnant. So that happened quite a bit. And there was one sad time that I woke up one morning and there was two lines, and I was like, oh my God, there’s a line. Am I pregnant? Could this happen?”
Sophie went on to describe the moment as everything she ‘ever wanted’ before she realised what was happening.
She added: “I shouted Jordan in the room, we celebrated. And it was just amazing. This moment felt like everything I’ve ever wanted. But then I was like, right, I’m just going to take another one just in case. And Jordan was like, I’ve gotta go filming now. I was like, wait, you go filming? I’ll be fine. This is amazing.
“He left to go filming and I did it again and I went, oh, oh, the line’s gone. That was really weird. Did – did I just see that? Was that in my head? Am I like seeing things? So I looked into it and apparently saw a chemical pregnancy. So it’s where the body is obviously producing a pregnancy, but it just goes. So that was probably a moment where it was like – this is tough.”
She described the moment as a ‘hard’ point in their journey. While Sophie hopes to get pregnant, she previously spoke about adoption and said “It’s not something I’ve looked into but I wouldn’t be against it.”
