This is so sad…
Vanderpump Rules star Scheana Shay revealed in a new, emotional podcast episode on Friday morning that she suffered a miscarriage just weeks after finding out she was finally pregnant.

The 35-year-old reality TV star told the story on her show, Scheananigans, revealing how doctors had previously told her “it would be close to impossible” to get pregnant. Miraculously, after freezing her eggs for the last year and a half, Shay and boyfriend Brock Davies discovered they were pregnant after she got sick one morning and then consulted a tarot card reader (yes, really). Five pregnancy tests later (!), it appeared as though Shay was finally becoming a mom!
But as she explained on the pod, tragedy struck when the Good as Gold singer went on a recent trip down to San Diego with her BF. “Freaking out” after she’d been “bleeding all weekend” on the trip, Shay immediately returned home and went back to the doctor, where she received the terrible news. The reality TV mainstay said (below):
“My OB got me in early, they did an ultrasound and there was no heartbeat. There was just nothing progressing, nothing going on inside. There were parts that he could see were starting to form, and it just didn’t. So obviously, [that was] just devastating. We were so excited. Gone so quickly. It’s still been a lot to process. Now I’m at home and I’m just waiting to naturally miscarry. … I’m just literally sitting here waiting, feeling normal but still treating my body as if I’m pregnant, which is a complete mindf**k because I know there’s still something there, but I haven’t passed it yet.”
Wow. So, so sad…
Shay also opened up about fellow (now former) reality TV star Stassi Schroeder‘s pregnancy, saying she was “so happy” for her former co-star, and adding how ironic it had been that they’d gotten pregnant at nearly the same time. She said on the podcast:
“The morning [after bleeding in San Diego], I wake up and I see all over the Internet that Stassi’s pregnant and I’m like, ‘Oh, my God, we’re pregnant together. I wonder how far along she is.’ She announced so early. I’m like, ‘I swear we were all drinking when we filmed the reunion, maybe she had a mocktail? I don’t know.’ Not only did I start bleeding the night before and I’m worried about having a miscarriage, but it was too early [to tell anyone]. I wasn’t really telling anyone other than my two best friends, my mom, my sister and obviously, Brock. No one knew and I wanted to keep it a secret until it was safe to tell people … because my hopes [were] already up.”
Still, now that the miscarriage news is out, Schroeder has been one of the people there most for Shay as she grapples with the aftermath of such a sad situation.

The reality TV star got real about that, too, saying:
“[Stassi and I] have talked more in the last five days than [they] have probably in the last five months or five years. She sent me the sweetest, most heartfelt message just genuinely being there for me and that really meant a lot because she’s pregnant right now. I’m sure being pregnant, you can’t imagine losing it. Everyone has been really, really supportive.”
Awww! That’s at least nice to hear, even if it comes out of a terribly, terribly sad situation. Sending all our love to Scheana Shay and her BF during this difficult time…
