Anne Hathaway reflected on her “painful” fertility struggles years before revealing that she is pregnant with baby No. 3.

“I think that we have a very one-size-fits-all approach to getting pregnant,” Hathaway told the Associated Press in 2019 after revealing that she struggled with fertility issues before getting pregnant with her and husband Adam Shulman’s second child.

“And you get pregnant and for the majority of cases, this is a really happy time. But a lot of people who are trying to get pregnant: That’s not really the story. Or that’s one part of the story,” she continued. “And the steps that lead up to that part of the story are really painful and very isolating and full of self-doubt. And I went through that.”

Hathaway, now 43, noted that she “didn’t just wave a magic wand” to get pregnant.

“It’s more complicated than that,” she said.

The actress explained that women often feel like they can’t talk about their fertility issues, even though so many people experience them.

“I was just aware of the fact that when it came time to post that I was pregnant, somebody was going to feel even more isolated because of it,” Hathaway said of her pregnancy announcement at the time, in which she sent “extra love” to those who are or have struggled to get pregnant.
