Anne Hathaway has been one of the most recognized actresses of the American star system for a long time. Her performances in her films such as The Devil Wears Prada, Rachel’s Wedding or Les Miserables have allowed critics and the public to remember her for years and decades. However, the New Yorker also develops her artistic talent on theater stages, where she had an unexpected experience.
The Brooklyn native spoke to Vanity Fair magazine about a post she shared in 2019, announcing the pregnancy of her second child. “It’s not for a movie…. Joking aside, for everyone who is going through the hell of infertility and conception, please know that it was not a straight line to any of my pregnancies. “I send you my love,” were her words, which hid a hidden message.
And the actress confessed to having felt pain when she was trying to get pregnant, and that she suffered a miscarriage in 2015: “It would have seemed insincere to me to publish something so happy when I know that the story has many more nuances for everyone. The first time it didn’t work for me. I was doing a play and had to give birth on stage every night. It was too much to keep in when I was on stage pretending everything was fine.”
“Otherwise, I had to be realistic… So when I did well, after having been on the other side, where you have to have the elegance to be happy for someone, I wanted my sisters to know: ‘You don’t always have to be elegant . I see you and I have been you.’ It is very hard to want something so much and wonder if you are doing something wrong,” she expressed, confessing that she told what happened to her colleagues at the theater and that she even blamed herself.
Even so, she was surprised to learn many of her friends went through the same thing: “I thought: Where is this information? Why do we feel so unnecessarily isolated? That’s where we hurt ourselves. So I decided I was going to talk about it. What broke my heart, blew my mind, and gave me hope was that for the next three years, almost every day, a woman would come up to me crying and I would just hug her, because she was carrying that pain and suddenly it wasn’t anymore. all yours”.
Likewise, he acknowledged that talking about the experience did him good mentally. “I wasn’t going to be ashamed of something that statistically seemed quite normal to me. When I was younger, the way I knew how to improve was by being hard on myself. That road has a roof. I had to relearn what it means to have drive, but to do it in an enriching way,” she confessed.
