The parents explained how they took their daughter to the hospital after she was repeatedly vomiting and had a seizure.
But Craig and Carla were left “feeling like animals” after hospital staff accused them of shaking their newborn after she was found with a bleed on the brain.
Carla told the hosts: “It was when we got to the hospital they didn’t say much to us they just did tests.
“And then they came back and said she had a bleed.”
Holly, 36, then said: “And that’s when it all unfolded, this nightmare.
“Within 12 hours detectives arrived at the hospital.”
Craig then went on to reveal that they were both arrested and ended up being questioned by police for almost nine hours.

It was then revealed that their daughter was taken away from them and put in foster care while the investigation went on.
The couple were only allowed to see their little girl three times a week.
Carla said: “We felt like animals. For those few months it felt like she wasn’t really our daughter anymore and that she belonged to someone else.
“I felt like she might forget that we’re her parents.”
