Whitney Port suffered a miscarriage two weeks ago, “The Hills: New Beginnings” star revealed on her podcast, “With Whit.”
“Two weeks ago, I had a miscarriage,” she captioned a preview of the episode on Instagram. “The amount of various emotions I felt in the past couple weeks have been extreme … from shock to sadness to relief, which then led to guilt for feeling that relief. My identity has been shaken in regards to who as a mom and human being. I’m currently in the process of learning to accept that my feelings are valid no matter what they are. Whether or not people feel the same way as me or not. They are my personal emotions that are the result from my own journey.”
Port’s husband Tim Rosenman interviews her in the emotional clip.
