“Boy Meets World” star, Trina McGee, has disclosed that she experienced a miscarriage three months after revealing her pregnancy.
The 55-year-old actor shared the heartbreaking news during an episode of The Tamron Hall Show, which first aired on September 23.
“I did lose the baby,” McGee, who was expecting her first child with husband Marcello Thedford, said. “It wasn’t expected. It was closer to the end of the first trimester. We really don’t have any real reasons why.”
She added: “I was still so grateful to have the experience of being able to conceive at this age and this time.”
McGee went on to recall how she had a difficult time after the miscarriage.
“It was just kind of hard to get out of bed. There are so many things that come when you really want a family and you want your family to be complete,” the mother of three adult children said. “There are many dreams that you have. And yeah, it was very hard to face the fact that that’s not going to happen at this point in the junction.”
She added that there were “so many women that have come to reach out” to her since she announced her pregnancy in June.
When Hall asked the couple if they were trying to get pregnant again, McGee said she wasn’t quite sure.
“Part of me doesn’t ever want to go through this again,” she said. “But then a part says, ‘Ah.’ So I think the conclusion I came to is, we’ll just keep loving each other. If something happens that way, fine, but I don’t want to put another anxiety on myself about, ‘Oh I’ve got to have another baby, because this didn’t work out.’ Sometimes it really is better to let go and let God.”
McGee also shared that she and her husband plan to foster a young girl who lives in Belize, before adding: “We’d just really like a tribe. We’d like a family. And that’s what we’re going to work on. Whether it comes naturally or not.
In June, McGee first cheekily revealed her pregnancy with a picture of herself showcasing her baby bump at Malacate Beach, Belize.
The TV regular, who played Angela Moore on Boy Meets World – also took to her Instagram to share her news. “At the tender age of 54, I have found myself pregnant. Please bless us with your prayers for a safe delivery. Thank you,” her post read.
McGee is already a mother to Raima, 33, and Langston, 30, whom she shares with her ex-husband Randall Courtland Davis. She also has a 26-year-old son, Ezra, with a previous partner.
