Ronda Rousey’s Emotional Heartbreak over Fertility Struggles

Legendary fighter Ronda Rousey’s desire to expand her family with husband, Travis Browne, has been marked by heartbreak and emotional challenges. Rousey, who welcomed daughter La’akea in 2021, has revealed that she suffered two miscarriages in 2019. Speaking on ‘Diary Of A CEO,’ she recounted the pain of losing a pregnancy just weeks after filming an episode of ‘9-1-1,’ where she narrowly escaped losing a finger during a stunt. Blaming herself for the miscarriages due to her continued engagement in dangerous activities while pregnant, Rousey expressed her struggles with depression and self-neglect. Despite these setbacks, the couple embarked on an IVF journey to have more children. Rousey underwent four cycles of IVF, resulting in eight embryos. While their first attempt resulted in the birth of La’akea, subsequent cycles have faced setbacks. The former Olympic judo champion broke down in tears upon receiving news that their latest IVF cycle had failed. Rousey emphasized the prevalence of fertility struggles and the importance of breaking the silence surrounding them. She shared her own experiences to highlight the emotional toll and the need for support and understanding among women who are facing similar challenges.
