“I’ve been trying to do this story six times, trying to talk to you and it’s complicated”said Mélanie Gonzalez in a short-lived story on Instagram account from her family on Saturday, July 8, 2023. Eyes full of tears, the mother of eight who participated in the show Large families: life in XXL broadcast on TF1, revealed terrible news to its 235,000 subscribers. “I know that on this account, I give you a lot of positive, beautiful things… But there, lately, I felt like I was lying to you”, continued the mother of Margot, Nino, Paolo, Elio, Hugo, Malo, Cléo and Marceau. The admirers of the daily life of this large family were certainly not ready to hear it, but Mélanie Gonzalez wanted to get rid of a very heavy weight on Saturday July 8, 2023. First learning that she was pregnant, she said: “a few days ago, I had stomach pains, we learn that there were maybe two. The next day, I learn that I am losing one. Then the second”.
Her third miscarriage in less than a year
Not knowing how to contain her tears, the mother of the family continued: “We were on the reserve since I have already had two miscarriages. Two pregnancies terminated about nine months ago”. This is the third miscarriage Melanie Gonzalez has had in less than a year. Impossible to imagine his mental pain, but also physical. In her terrible ordeal, the mother insisted on letting her subscribers know that she was “very well surrounded” and despite the events, happy to know that she was not alone. “I am blessed with eight beautiful children. An exceptional husband, friends… […] My mom, who is also present.” This ephemeral story is a real purgatory for the mother. The latter then explains the reason why she wanted to talk about her miscarriage: “I find that we don’t talk enough about terminated pregnancies. The proof: I had never spoken to you about the others for fear of I don’t know what… I think it’s important to talk about it, and above all, it might feel good, I don’t know…”. It will take a long time for the couple to recover, but as Mélanie Gonzalez clarified on her Instagram account, the entourage counts a lot to get through difficult times.
