November 9, 2021 by watkinsT Leave a Comment

Miscarriage is the term used for a pregnancy that ends on its own, within the first 20 weeks of gestation, and, according to American Pregnancy Association, 10-25% of women experience this heartbreak. And although it’s the most common type of pregnancy loss, the impact felt is devastating, nonetheless.

Below are 33 celebrity moms who’ve suffered through a miscarriage.

You know, I can’t just sit around thinking about this. Like, I wanna work, I wanna do this.’ “‘…Cause I would literally have these horrible things going on in my life, and then have to go smile and, like, do some interviews or, like, do a photo shoot or something, you know?
