Selling Sunset cast member Mary Fitzgerald has revealed that amid her journey to have a second child, she suffered a miscarriage with complications that warranted surgery.
In an emotional March 31 Instagram video, the Netflix reality star said that she and husband Romain Bonnet conceived during a trip to Bali. “Unfortunately, that didn’t work out,” she said. “On top of the miscarriage, also had what they apparently call septic miscarriage, so I had to go in for surgery for that.”
The 42-year-old continued, “I’ve been very silent for a long time, but the reason why I’m speaking out now is because I do realize how common this is and how many people go through this, and it is not easy. I needed a minute because there’s so many eyes on me and everyone judges. It has been rough to say the least.”
Mary, who has a 26-year-old son, Austin Babbitt, from a previous relationship, expressed optimism that she and Romain will eventually succeed in expanding their family. “But there’s still hope,” she said, tearfully. “I’m going to continue to share [my journey] and we are going to have very good news very soon.”
