With this, Whitney made the decision to terminate her pregnancy.

Zack accompanied Whitney to her appointment, wanting to do what was best for the baby.

Whitney didn’t want Peach to suffer and swallowed a tablet to begin the termination process.

Next week, the couple go to hospital, arguing over whether to bring Peach home with them or leave her at the hospital.
