Earlier this month, something big happened. Monica Garcia, known for her role in “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” dropped a bombshell. She’s expecting baby number five. The reveal came unexpectedly during a chat with Nick Viall on his podcast, “The Viall Files.”
But here’s where things take a turn. Monica recently took to Instagram, and it wasn’t with the news we were hoping for. She started her post with a promise she made to herself. To be real. To be raw. To let us in on every part of her journey, no matter how personal.
In her post, there were two poignant images. One showed her, hand in hand with her partner. The other? A heart-wrenching scene of Monica in a hospital bed, gazing at a sonogram. Her words that followed were few but heavy. “There is no heartbeat,” she shared. It’s clear she’s still in the midst of processing this devastating news herself.
The announcement of her pregnancy was a surprise, even to Monica. She admitted as much, noting how quickly joy turned to sorrow. Yet, despite her own pain, Monica’s thoughts were with others. She reached out to anyone grappling with miscarriage, fertility issues, or the loss of a child. Her gratitude for her doctors and her support system was evident. And her appreciation for the kindness shown to her during this time was heartfelt. “I love you and I’m so thankful for you,” she wrote.
Our hearts go out to Monica, her partner, and their family as they navigate through this incredibly tough time.
Now, switching gears a bit. Let’s talk about the person behind these words. Kate Fann. She’s based in East Tennessee, living life with her husband Casey and their two sons, Quinn and Noah. When she’s not crafting stories or scrolling through Instagram, you might find her indulging in the finer things. Like savoring a good wine, experimenting with makeup, baking something scrumptious, or exploring the Smoky Mountains.
