Oscar-winning actress Anne Hathaway, who is a mother to sons Jonathan, 8, and Jack, 4, with her husband Adam Shulman, recently looked back on her challenging journey to motherhood. She shared how she faced a miscarriage while performing in the Off-Broadway play Grounded for nearly six weeks in 2015.

Reflecting on her experience, she told in a cover story published on March 25, «The first time it didn’t work out for me. I was doing a play and I had to give birth onstage every night.»

During that time, she felt that «it was too much to keep it in when I was onstage pretending everything was fine,» and chose to be honest about her struggles with her friends and family. «I had to keep it real otherwise.»

Later on, she extended this same openness to the public when announcing her pregnancy. She explained, «When it did go well for me, having been on the other side of it — where you have to have the grace to be happy for someone — I wanted to let my sisters know, ’You don’t have to always be graceful. I see you, and I’ve been you.’»

«It’s really hard to want something so much and to wonder if you’re doing something wrong,» she added. The Oscar winner further recalled her shock at learning how many pregnancies end in miscarriage. According to the Mayo Clinic, 10% to 20% of known pregnancies end in miscarriage, though the actual number is likely higher. She wished that this information was more widely disseminated.

Anne continued, «I thought, ’Where is this information? Why are we feeling so unnecessarily isolated?’ That’s where we take on damage. So I decided that I was going to talk about it.»

When Anne Hathaway announced her second pregnancy on Instagram in 2019, she accompanied it with a powerful caption.

«It’s not for a movie…» Hathaway wrote, referring to her baby bump. «All kidding aside, for everyone going through infertility and conception hell, please know it was not a straight line to either of my pregnancies. Sending you extra love.»

Reflecting on the impact of her candid post, she shared, «The thing that broke my heart, blew my mind, and gave me hope was that for three years after, almost daily, a woman came up to me in tears and I would just hold her, because she was carrying this (pain) around, and suddenly it wasn’t all hers anymore.»

Reflecting on her experience, she shared that given «the pain I felt while trying to get pregnant, it would’ve felt disingenuous to post something all the way happy when I know the story is much more nuanced than that for everyone.»

Recently another actress, Nicole Kidman, also shared her struggles having children.

Unfaithful Husband Doesn’t Expect an Ordinary Box of Pizza Would Expose Him

An sudden return by Adrian’s wife completely altered the course of events, which had been supposed to be a hot evening between Adrian and his mistress. An innocent pizza box was the source of the true surprise, which was the revelation that Adrian had been unfaithful, which ultimately changed the trajectory of his life.

Adrian watched Claire prepare for yet another business trip as she stood outside their flat, surrounded by the lights of the city centre.

“More trips?” Alan let out a sigh.

Claire remarked, “It’s part of the job,” as she zipped up her suitcase.
What’s the matter, though? Adrian pleaded with him, “Your fashion emporium is in need of you.”

“I vow that it won’t be too much longer. Also, I’ll miss you a lot.

After she had checked in at the airport, Claire had the intention of informing Adrian about her pregnancy; however, she was interrupted by an urgent call from work, which prevented her from doing so.
When Adrian got back to his house, he mumbled, “Finally, she’s gone!” and got in touch with his girlfriend.

Roses are what I’ll deliver. “I am certain that you adore them!” she assured him.

“Come soon; I can’t wait!” The excited response came from Adrian.

Together, they experienced a romantic moment just as Vanessa arrived. Although she was spraying Claire’s perfume, she mocked her by saying, “You love my kisses and her perfume, don’t you?” They were in the middle of their moment when the doorbell rang.
When Adrian was looking for a pizza delivery, he ended up finding Claire instead. “Hey, honey!”

“Ms. Claire, you’ve returned? I was under the impression that you were in Hong Kong,” Adrian said.

“My flight was cancelled,” I said. It’s going to be three more days before I leave!

In an effort to divert Claire’s attention, Adrian hurriedly followed Claire while simultaneously concealing Vanessa’s underwear.
