Isabella Arantes shares grief over pregnancy loss with Gabriel Medina
Isabella Arantes, wife of professional surfer Gabriel Medina, shared a personal account on social media regarding the loss of her pregnancy. The loss occurred at three months gestation after the couple had recently married in São Paulo.
Arantes detailed the emotional impact of the event, noting that the diagnosis was discovered during a first-trimester morphological ultrasound when it was found the baby's heart had stopped beating. She described the experience as a shock, as she had shown no prior physical warning signs such as bleeding.
In her statement, Arantes reflected on how the pregnancy changed her perspective on physical appearance and self-image. She also expressed gratitude for the support of Gabriel Medina during the physical and emotional grieving process.
