Pump Rules alum Kristen Doute opens up about suffering a “terrifying” miscarriage while trying to conceive with her boyfriend, Luke Broderick.
On the November 26th episode of Kristen Doute’s Sex, Love, and What Else Matters podcast, the Pump Rules alum revealed that she suffered a “f–king terrifying loss” six weeks into her pregnancy.
“I only feel comfortable talking about this because I know so many friends of mine have gone through this. I know so many women have been through this,” Kristen Doute explained during Sunday’s podcast episode.
The 40-year-old explained that her pregnancy was not considered viable as the embryo had not developed and was considered a blighted ovum.
“You always think, ‘What’s wrong, what did I do wrong? Could I have done something different?’” the Bravo star recalled. “And my doctor and my friends have told me, inside and out, up and down, there’s no cause. They don’t know why.”
Kristen Doute then revealed that she and her boyfriend, Luke Broderick, plan to try again and conceive their rainbow baby.
“The only silver lining, the fact that we’ve now been digesting this for the last four or five days, is that I know once Luke and I are past this, we can try again,” the 40-year-old reality TV star said. “We were so so lucky, because it could have gone a different way for me at my age. I haven’t gone through IVF, I haven’t frozen my eggs, I haven’t done anything. I just think there’s something in God’s plan.”
While Kristen Doute acknowledges that her miscarriage was “unfortunate,” she notes: “We’re very hopeful to have a very healthy pregnancy the next time around.”
The Pump Rules alum and Broderick have been dating since 2022 and recently publicly revealed that they were ready to become parents.
Kristen noted that a psychic told her she would have a baby boy “between 41 and 42,” so she wasn’t “going to worry about having a baby in 2023.”
Pump Rules will return to Bravo for season 11 in January.
