Whitney Port says pregnancy loss was caused by ‘chromosomal issue’


Whitney Port is speaking out about her recent pregnancy loss.

During an appearance Tuesday on the “Being Bümo” podcast with Chriselle Lim, the “Hills” alum, 35, explained that learning the baby had a “chromosomal issue” is helping her grieve.

“Basically I got a D&C [dilation and curettage] and they did an autopsy, and the doctor said that it was a chromosomal issue, so the baby was not going to be a healthy baby and I felt like in that way I had a little bit of closure,” Port said.

In January, Port — who shares 3-year-old son Sonny with husband Tim Rosenman — revealed she suffered a pregnancy loss. She had also miscarried in July 2019.

“It felt like, ‘Why is this happening to me? Was there anything that I did wrong? Is there anything wrong with my body?’” Port said Tuesday. “Now that this has happened twice, you know I think that’s sometimes one of the first things that we think about when this stuff happens to us, especially as women and being such harsh critics on ourselves.”

Port, who has been married to Rosenman, a producer, since 2015, continued, “Then you realize, no, this is not something that you have any control over and you need to immediately release that part.”

The MTV personality added she’s gained perspective in the wake of past losses.

“I don’t think you’re ever fully healed after a loss. I think these losses make you into a stronger person. I don’t wish them upon anybody, but they do give you a lot of good perspective, and they give you a lot of time to appreciate the things that you have,” Port said.
