Nick Viall’s wife, Natalie Joy, experiences third miscarriage this year

Nick Viall’s wife, Natalie Joy, has experienced her third miscarriage this year.

The former “Bachelor” star shared the heartbreaking news with his “Viall Files” podcast listeners Thursday.

“As you can see, Natalie is not with us. There’s no really easy way to talk about this. … Sadly, Natalie experienced another miscarriage. It is her third this year, our third this year. There’s no really good way to say it — it f–king sucks,” Viall, 44, lamented.

“She’s obviously at home resting, healing, both physically and emotionally,” he added, making sure to note that the couple wanted to be “vulnerable” and “open” with their audience.

Viall, who shares 18-month-old daughter River with Joy, 26, admitted that it was “a bit of a scary time” for them, given that she miscarried in January and again in March.

“It’s far less normal to have two and three [miscarriages] back to back,” he said, explaining that the pair are now in “that very scary process of running tests and finding out more” about their health and bodies.

“Overall, Natalie is doing OK physically and healing; she’s OK in that respect,” the reality personality assured fans. However, “emotionally,” it’s been “very difficult” for the duo.

Viall explained that he was trying to “strike this balance” between “grieving” and “keeping life together, keeping the family going” during this “confusing” time.

“There’s a tragedy there that makes you feel very alone, and obviously, that’s something that Natalie is going through right now,” he shared, admitting that both he and the surgical technologist, who has previously disclosed that she was raped at the age of 10, felt “a lot of uneasiness about getting excited” over this pregnancy.

“It’s tough. It’s been a whirlwind, and we’re trying to get through it as a family. And we will, and I think part of this challenge is still appreciating what we have, and having River, and life goes on.”

Viall and Joy got married in April 2024.
