Jennifer Lawrence Opens Up About Two Past Miscarriages—and the Birth of Our Newest Fan Favorite
Whoa, hello
Our beloved Oscar‑winning star, Jennifer, dropped a bombshell in her October Vogue cover interview. The 32‑year‑old bravely shared that she’s survived two miscarriages and delighted in naming her newborn son, Cy, for the first time ever.
From “Early 20s” to “Once Again”
- Her first loss came while she was a teenager—early 20s, no less—and she was 100 % leaning toward an abortion before the pregnancy slipped away.
- When she finally got married to her long‑time love, the husband Cooke Maroney (38), she dreamed of having a child but fate had other plans: another miscarriage followed by a D&C (that merry‑old surgical “top‑off”).
- The second tragedy unfolded during a busy shoot for Don’t Look Up, a climate‑change satire starring Leonardo DiCaprio that hit theatres in December 2021. You can’t believe the universe planners sometimes.
Reality Check for Modern Moms
Jennifer was candid about the hard truths she’s observed: “I’ve seen how little choices some young women have, and it’s heartbreaking to see them forced into pregnancies they weren’t ready for.” She’s been in the moment chatting about what it feels to be pregnant, “thinking about the changes in my body,” and the weight of feeling like maybe you’re “forced to do this” in the future.
Cy: The Sprout of Creativity
Her new baby boy came into the world with a name that’s just as cool as he is physics‑fun: Cy, after the famed post‑war American painter Cy Twombly. That’s a nod to Cooke’s taste for art, and you can almost hear the watercolor vibes. JGL said in a tongue‑flipping moment that she’s “such a fan of all babies.” She even laughed at hearing a newborn cry in a restaurant, thinking, “Awwww, preciousssss….”
Mom‑to‑Mom vibes
“I was walking with a friend at nine months and she kept saying, ‘I will love my baby more than my cat.’ I thought, ‘Maybe I’ll love that little dude as much as my cat?’” JGL admitted. Then, on the day after delivery, she felt her life totally rebooted. “It was like day one of my life. I just stared. I was so in love.” She took a moment to appreciate the fragile, pink mess of newborns and, honestly, couldn’t help but marvel at all the little miracle babies in the world.
