While Lindsay was in surgery a midwife brought a baby to John, who is said to have questioned if this was his baby Charlie. After a traumatic birth, Lindsay and John were faced with the trauma of the "mix-up", which Lindsay says will forever "haunt" them both. The couple ended their relationship months after Charlie's birth, with Lindsay saying the trauma left her mental health "crippled".
