For most parents (most of the time), their children are a source of happiness and joy. Watching a child growing up and being mature is truly a blessing from above. However, sometimes things don’t go as we expect. According to surveys, every eight couple experiences issues with conception and the maintenance of a pregnancy. These are absolutely hard times for both spouses, especially wives when many sink into depression for a long time. Celebrities are no exception.
Some famous couples have a tough time when women suffer miscarriages, even more than once. While many don’t have the guts to face this, some break the silence and willingly share their stories. Their stories support those who have to deal with similar problems.
Below are some celebrity couples who are ready to do anything for the sake of their dream – becoming parents.
