Can celebrities really manifest their dream roles through style choices?
"We were crushed. Up till then, I thought simply because it was time and I wanted to have a baby, it would work out. Maybe I’ll never know why it happened. But it made me understand the difference between wanting to have a baby and truly wanting to be a mother," she said to People magazine.

In August 2021, two babies after her miscarriage, she wrote on Instagram for National Rainbow Baby Day about her gratitude, but also about the "sadness written permanently in the pages of my life's book." She wrote, "We open and heal out loud not only for ourselves, but to let our sisters know that they are not alone."
In February 2021, Teigen spoke to Ellen DeGeneres about the tragic pre-term loss of her baby boy, Jack. "But being Thai and being raised in a house that was very open about loss, I think it was really helpful," she said. "I see it as, it can be a beautiful thing, and it was a really transformative thing for me. In a way he really saved me because I don't think that I would have discovered therapy and then sobriety and this path of kind of really feeling good about myself and feeling like a new person." In a lengthy post shared to Instagram on August 22, she said she's been so busy with her third cookbook she didn't "really feel like I fully processed jack and now that I don’t have the alcohol to numb it away, things are just…there, waiting to be acknowledged."
Jessie J opened up about her miscarriage, which occurred back in November 2021, in an interview with 'Dragons' Den' star Steven Bartlett on his 'The Diary of a CEO' podcast. The British singer opened up about the traumatic experience in-depth, explaining how she woke up one morning and realized: "I don’t feel right."
"I just knew, something wasn’t the same," she recalled. She visited a doctor immediately to get an ultrasound to check on the baby. The doctor told her that her baby's heartbeat was very low and weak, and there was a ring which "often means your baby will have some type of disability or deformity." Jessie asked, "But it’s still there?" and the doctor replied, "Yeah, it’s still there."
Jennifer Lawrence revealed to Vogue in a September cover story that she suffered two miscarriages before giving birth to her son. The first was when she had gotten pregnant in her early 20s and “had a miscarriage alone in Montreal” before she could get an intended abortion. The second was when she got pregnant during the filming of 'Don't Look Up' (2021), which required her to subsequently undergo a surgical procedure to remove tissue from her uterus. The Oscar-winning actress brought up her miscarriages while discussing her anger over the Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, which led to her home state of Kentucky banning abortions. Lawrence said the move only worsened the rift with her Republican, anti-abortion family, even though she herself was only able to have a healthy child because of a medical procedure that is now restricted across the country.
Lela Rochon is mother to Asia and Brandon, but experienced infant loss before. "After that, the next pregnancy was pins and needles for me and everyone around me. Anytime relatives received a late-night phone call, they worried I had bad news," she said in an interview.
Broadway star Laura Benanti took to Instagram on April 5 to share her painful history of pregnancy loss. "On Monday April 3rd, I performed on stage for 2000 people while having a miscarriage. I knew it was happening. It started slowly the night before. If it had been our first loss, or even our second, I likely wouldn’t have been able to go on. But unfortunately, I am not a stranger to the pain and emptiness of losing a pregnancy." She went on to thank all of those who were around her as she went through that traumatic event, from the audience who "lifted me out of my grief for that Holy hour," to her band for "holding me, unconditionally, in your hearts," and to her producers, "who could give a masterclass on how to handle a personal emergency with empathy and compassion."
She concluded the heart-wrenching but beautifully worded post by saying that she was sharing her experience "to remind the many people and families who have and will suffer in this way that there is no shame in this kind of loss." She signed off, "My hand in yours, Laura."
Tiffany Haddish revealed she's had quite a few miscarriages. In an interview with The Washington Post in 2023, the comedian said, "Well I'm going to be honest with you, this would be my eighth miscarriage." Speaking to Rachel Bilson on her podcast 'Broad Ideas,' the 43-year-old said that it "has a lot to do with the endometriosis and misdiagnosis and all that stuff." She also said they were "painful" and that she felt "like a piece of my soul died every time," she shared. "I don't know if I am capable and I feel like that was God's birth control telling me, ‘He is not the one. That is not who you are supposed to be having a baby with.'" She's not giving up, however, and told E! News in January 2022 that she could be ready to start the paperwork for adoption, "maybe at the end of the year, beginning of next year."

Megan Fox is releasing a book of poetry titled 'Pretty Boys Are Poisonous,' in which she explores her history of abusive relationships. However, another topic that comes up in her work is pregnancy loss. In an interview ahead of the book's release, she opened up about her experience on 'Good Morning America.' Fox, who has three children with ex Brian Austin Green, said “I’ve never been through anything like that before in my life." The devastating loss left her and her relationship in turmoil. “It sent us on a very wild journey together and separately, and together and apart, and together and apart, and together and apart. Trying to navigate, ‘What does this mean?’ and ‘Why did this happen?’” Over the past year, there have been rumors circulating around the couple who went from intense public proclamations of their love to an apparent separation, and later quietly reconnected out of the spotlight.
In the book, Fox references a scan she had at 10 weeks and one day. “I want to hold your hand / hear your laugh,” she writes in one poem, later adding, “But now / I have to say / goodbye.”

But the feeling of something being wrong hadn't subsided, so Jessie phoned around for another doctor to get a second opinion, and found one with just 10 minutes to spare. He did another scan, but didn't give her the news she wanted to hear. "He said, 'I’m really sorry there’s no heartbeat,'" Jessie recalled. "That [scan] was within three or four hours of the first one."
The singer, who was previously told that she wouldn’t be able to conceive a baby, said the "worst moment" of the experience was realizing that "being a mother and having a child has been the biggest excitement of my life." She continued, "I felt like I’d been given everything I’d ever wanted and then someone had gone, 'but you can’t have it.'" Jessie J welcomed her first child in 2023.
