Melanie Gonzalez makes a sad announcement
And you have to believe that Mélanie and Franck had finally considered the arrival of a ninth toddler since the mother of the family has just made a very sad announcement this Saturday, July 8, 2023 on Instagram. “I’ve been trying to do this story for six times, trying to talk to you, but it’s complicated… As you may have noticed, I’ve been absent for the past few days. I haven’t done any facing the camera […] because I was incapable of anything” she advanced.
“A few weeks ago, we learned that I was pregnant. We were on the reserve because I had already had two pregnancies, nine months ago. […] A few days ago I had stomach pains and it was learned that there were maybe two. And the next day, I learned that I had lost one…then the second.” she revealed in tears.
Although devastated, Mélanie Gonzalez concluded her speech on a positive note: “I am lucky to have eight beautiful children, an exceptional husband and friends. I am very well surrounded, my mother is also very present.” The mother of the family explained that she spoke to raise awareness on an important subject: “I wanted to talk to you about this because I think that we don’t talk about terminated pregnancies enough. The proof, I had never talked to you about the other two for fear of… I don’t know. But I think it’s important to talk, and above all, it feels good!”.
