A Star with a Big Heart: Alexander Ludwig's Candid Confession
While most celebrities shy away from sharing personal grief on public platforms, Alexander Ludwig opened up to his 3.5 million Instagram followers, not just to vent but to foster a sense of community.
In his words: "This woman’s strength astounds me every time. I love you @laurendludwig and your resilience through this just is one more of the countless reasons I love you."
The 30-year-old Canadian actor wanted to show that miscarriages are nothing to be ashamed of. His wife, Lauren, seconded this sentiment: "It’s so common and yet, I feel it’s not talked about nearly enough. If more of us talked about these things, maybe we would feel less alone and at fault. Information is power and I want to start sharing more of it."

Married in January 2021 in an intimate elopement, Alexander and Lauren's relationship is no fairy tale. Yet, their love shines through in both the joyful moments and the painful experiences.
Speaking of their elopement, Ludwig shared how the "crazy year" in 2020 gave them perspective: "Life is too short and I didn’t want to spend another day without calling this beautiful woman my wife."
Their journey, although marred by the tragedy of three miscarriages, has become a symbol of resilience and love. Ludwig's decision to share this experience shows an unwavering dedication to breaking stigmas and starting important conversations.
