Dancing with the Stars’ Maks Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd recently opened up to People about their traumatic loss experience, revealing that they have suffered three pregnancies and are still processing the trauma.
They had two marriages. They exchanged vows in secret on July 8, 2017, at a small city hall wedding in New York City, and later that day, in front of their loved ones, at Oheka Castle on Long Island.
Dancing With the Stars contestants Maks Chmerkovskiy and Peta Murgatroyd have been attempting to start a family for a while. The couple’s journey hasn’t been simple, though.
In 2009, they met on Broadway and fell in love while competing in the ABC dance competition. The pair has miscarried three times so far. While her spouse was visiting Ukraine in October, Murgatroyd miscarried. In a conversation with People about her grief, Murgatroyd stated:
The dancer discovered her third loss when she was admitted to the hospital with what she believed to be COVID-19 signs. Immediately after receiving the prognosis, Murgatroyd learned she was expecting and had lost. She shared her suffering with the publication and said:
In the end, I was unaware that I was pregnant, which was healthier for my recovery because I didn’t have that incredibly happy realization that I was pregnant once more.
Murgatroyd miscarried her first child in 2020 while doing her grocery buying at Whole Foods. She didn’t know “how to voice the words and have that statement come out of my mouth: I had a miscarriage,” and she felt “totally humiliated, ultimately mortified.”
Because she was “someone who takes care of her health and fitness,” her passing was especially upsetting. She “realized it doesn’t go hand in hand with the reproductive system” despite exercising “every single day.”
At nine months, the Dancing With the Stars couple experienced a second loss. Murgatroyd discussed her second setback and said:
“I had to call him and let him know that it had occurred once more.” Since I am aware of how it affects him as well, hearing him become agitated for the first time was difficult.
The Dancing With the Stars couple chose to talk about the horror after keeping it a secret for years. Murgatroyd is persevering despite the setback. She has started the in vitro fertilization process and is “full of hope and enthusiasm” that it “will work.”
