UK comedian Russell Howard reveals 'devastating' death of son

British comedian Russell Howard has revealed that he and his wife's newborn son, Felix, died earlier this year shortly after his birth. Howard took to social media to describe the ordeal his family went through during "the most devastating time" of their lives. "During our time in hospital, Felix was placed in a cool cot, which meant that my wife and I were able to spend precious hours with our beautiful boy. "Those hours are among the most precious memories we have of Felix," he said. Howard praised the hospital staff for their care, claiming their bereavement midwife Lauren helped them through the difficult period. "Her care meant more to us than we can ever put into words," Howard said.
