Teri Hatcher Shares She Suffered a Miscarriage Trying to Have 2nd Baby

Teri Hatcher is opening up about a difficult topic.

While guest hosting E! News’ Daily Pop alongside Justin Sylvester and Loni Love on Thursday, Jan. 20, the Desperate Housewives alum shared that, while in her early 40s, she experienced a miscarriage while trying to have her second child.

The topic came up as the hosts were discussing Ginnifer Goodwin‘s offer to donate her husband Josh Dallas‘ sperm to a close friend who wanted to be a mother. When Love said “just get a sperm donor,” Hatcher said that was a decision she had once made.

“I did that,” the 57-year-old shared earlier today. “It didn’t work out for me, but I tried to have a second child by myself and I went through that, got a sperm donor. I actually had a miscarriage, unfortunately.” 

Still, Hatcher—who shares daughter Emerson, 24, with ex Jon Tenney—admitted the process of picking a sperm donor was actually “kind of fun.”
