Alex Gonzaga confirmed in an Instagram post on October 17 the heartbreaking news that she miscarried in her first pregnancy.
The TV host and actress said that two months ago, she and her husband Mikee Morada found out that they were expecting but received some heartbreaking news. "Three weeks ago, we got [the] heartbreaking news that we might be having an anembryonic pregnancy (blighted ovum)."
Alex shared that their doctor advised the couple to wait for the process to naturally take its course, and added, "We had to wait a while for the pregnancy to end before we can tell our story."
A blighted ovum happens when a fertilized egg gets implanted in the uterus but doesn't develop into an embryo and the condition causes early miscarriages.

Alex continued, "The waiting and praying tested our faith, and there [was] a lot of crying. Every day, we were clinging on to a miracle that an embryo would still appear, but last Tuesday, the Lord’s will prevailed and we finally closed the book of our first pregnancy."
Alex wanted to share the story to give hope to couples who are going through something similar. She wrote, "We share our story to give hope that in the midst of this pain and loss, the Lord will always sustain you. To any couple going through this or who might go through this pain, don't ever lose hope. It’s not your fault this happened. At your pace, you can start to grieve and heal."
"Mikee and I held on to our Lord Jesus to prepare and help us accept our situation," Alex added. "He blessed us with a kind of LOVE that is ready to understand. We know that in His perfect time, He will bless us with our ultimate desire."

Ending her post, Alex wrote, "To our baby whom we almost had, thank you for giving mommy and daddy joy even for a short span. Lastly, thank you to everyone who gave us time to heal."
Recently, Mikee responded to miscarriage rumors when he posted a comment on Lolit Solis' post on the matter on Instagram. Mikee wrote, "Ma'am, masakit at nakakadismaya naman. Hindi lang patungkol kay Alex ang inyong sinulat; tungkol ito sa amin mag-asawa. Kaya hinihingi ko ang inyong pagrespeto. Huwag po kayong gumawa ng kuwento sa ganitong klaseng sitwasyon, lalo't hindi niyo naman alam ang totoong pangyayari. Salamat."
