Mary Fitzgerald has had to relive her experience with a miscarriage after season seven of ‘Selling Sunset’.
After all the feelings came flooding back for days, the actress opened up about her and her husband Romain Bonnet‘s current baby-making efforts and how she deals with the difficult miscarriage. Fitzgerald and Bonnet said “I do” in a secret civil wedding five years ago, just before filming began on the hit Netflix series, and have gone from strength to strength since.
Mary Fitzgerald is willing to try again
Fitzgerald gave a brief update on how she and Bonnet are navigating life after a miscarriage as she talked about the seventh season of her Netflix show “Selling Sunset” and the painful memories she now has to ease.
“It’s not my favorite season by a long shot. I think it was a good season, just for me personally, not so much. Reliving everything isn’t the easiest thing to do, but it’s where we are now.” the actress shared. About her recent miscarriage, she said:
“Well, I thought we were doing better, you know, just healed a little more. But it’s hard to revisit and relive all those emotions. It’s not easy to do.”

She shared the heartbreaking news in an Instagram video in March, adding that she and Bonnet went to Bali and became pregnant, but things didn’t go as planned. Fitzgerald revealed that she had to undergo surgery due to the development of an infection in her uterus, adding:
“So I had to undergo surgery for that. I think the only reason I’ve been silent for a long time, and the reason I’m speaking out now, is because I realize how common this is and how many people experience this.”
However, the “Cougar Town” actress expressed her desire to try for another pregnancy, saying she underwent an MRI after the septic miscarriage, which led to the discovery of an abnormality in her uterus. Furthermore, the reality star explained:
‘It’s called a unicornuate uterus, and it will complicate things. I can still carry because I’ve had my son, but it will complicate things so we’ll have to look at that.
According to ANDthe actress shared that her eldest son Austin is excited about the idea of having a sibling, adding:
“I think he likes the idea, but it doesn’t affect him that much. He lives, well, he’s currently in Dubai. He is in the military and is stationed in Dubai for six months and then he returns to Nevada.”

The enviable couple met while looking at houses. According to the actress, “Romain flew to a house to look and I (Fitzgerald) was his agent.” Fitzgerald went on to say that they hit it off on the spot, and it also coincided with his move to LA, where she lived at the time.
Despite the lovebirds’ 12-year difference, the couple took their romance one step further by tying the knot in a low-key ceremony in March 2018. In fact, the couple was married before Bonnet got down on one knee at the end of the first season of “Selling Sunset,” but kept things under wraps. According to their representatives:
“They chose not to tell their friends or family because they were still trying to see if their relationship would work out in the long term. In their eyes, they weren’t really married until the wedding was filmed on the show.”
In February 2019, the newlyweds flew to France to meet Bonnet’s family. He then replaced the moissanite engagement ring he initially gave the actress in April of the same year with a real diamond. They also had a more elaborate wedding on October 12, 2019, which they both described as “amazing.”
Fitzgerald and Bonnet became new homeowners in January 2021. In December 2022, the actress shared that they were getting ready to freeze their embryos because they didn’t want to miss any chance to have babies in the future.
However, by December 2022 American weekly said the couple chose to try it naturally because they were unable to complete the freezing of their embryos. “We did a round of embryo freezing, but that didn’t work. But I think further [Selling Sunset] season 6, you’ll see why, what happened. We couldn’t finish it, so now we’re just trying to do it naturally,” said the mother of one.
