The "Glee" alum is expecting a baby girl with husband Zandy Reich.
Lea Michele is opening about the heartbreaking health struggles she faced while trying to get pregnant with her second child.
While recently appearing on Katherine Schwarzenegger’s podcast ”BDA Baby,” the actress, 37, who welcomed her first child, son Ever with husband Zandy Reich in 2020, got candid about suffering “two back-to-back very early failed pregnancies” before conceiving again.
“I had never had a miscarriage before,” she explained. “The first one, I was like, ‘That was weird.’ When it happened again right away, I was like, ‘Wait a second. Something is wrong.’”
The “Glee” alum then revealed that the pair, who tied the knot in 2019, had to “step away” from trying for another baby while she worked on the 2022 Broadway show, “Funny Girl.”
“It wasn’t until a little bit later [that] I had another [pregnancy loss]. I was actually working at the time. It was super challenging to be working and having to...process what we were experiencing at the same time, which was very painful,” she recalled.
