In May 2021, Nev Schulman opened up about the struggle of raising two children with a third on the way. “Lucky as we are to be having another kid, that doesn’t mean that you’re always excited and always feel great about it,” he told People. “It’s overwhelming, and it’s daunting … There’s a lot of emotions attached.”
And recently, it was revealed that Schulman and his wife Laura Perlongo tried for a fourth child, but the writer had a miscarriage. “This manicure’s been through a lot,” she captioned her Instagram slideshow, slyly comparing the loss to her nails. ”About to change it, the manicure that is, n feeling a lil sad to see her go.” She then mentioned that she had a lot of love for the new baby, but she’s feeling alright after the loss. “New month new nails tho and that’s OK by me,” she added. “There’s still a lot of hands out there to hold, for now.”
Schulman’s fellow “Dancing with the Stars” alum Shawn Johnson East has shown that miscarriages can sometimes lead to a happy ending. She took to Instagram to reflect on her experience. “October 19th … always hits a little hard for me in such a bittersweet way,” she wrote in the caption. “It was the day I miscarried our first baby in 2017 but then a little over a year later I was told it was the due date of Drew Hazel.”
