Vanessa Marcil — star of General Hospital, Beverly Hills 90210 and Las Vegas — has miscarried the baby girl she was carrying. The actor revealed the devastating news on Jan. 25 via Instagram. The post shows a photo of Marcil and her fiancé — known on social media as “MC” — kissing on a beach.

We’re devastated for Marcil. At the same time, we are deeply moved by her willingness to share her heartbreaking news with others who are struggling with pregnancy loss and infertility. She could have easily kept this pregnancy — and subsequent loss — a secret, but instead Marcil is bravely speaking out so other women might feel a little less alone. What a remarkably beautiful gesture during such an unspeakably painful time.
