Maksim Chmerkovskiy Opens Up On IVF Journey With Wife Peta Murgatroyd

Dancer Maksim Chmerkovskiy shared an update on him and his wife, Peta Murgatroyd, and how they’re going about their journey to growing their family of three. The pro dancer has been a fixture on “Dancing With the Stars” since 2002, and while she officially left the show in season 16, she made numerous cameo appearances afterward.

Chmerkovskiy and professional dance partner, Murgatroyd, married in 2017 after meeting years earlier on Broadway. During their marriage, the two have been candid about their pregnancy challenges, including previous miscarriages and failed IVF transfers.

Murgatroyd told People about her latest failed pregnancy attempt in August, but Chmerkovskiy’s recent interview revealed that they don’t intend to stop there. The pro dancer said they would look for other options to expand their family.

MEGAWhile talking to E! News, former “Dancing With the Stars” pro Chmerkovskiy revealed that he and Murgatroyd are still very much invested in having another child besides five-year-old Shai. The couple previously announced that their first round of in-vitro fertilization proved unsuccessful in August.

Chmerkovskiy revealed that the family is looking into other options, such as adoption, to welcome a new child into their home. “We still want a family bigger than ours.

During the IVF process, Murgatroyd kept the public up-to-date and was open about her failures. The couple has received a lot of support from fans who are going through the same issue and those who sympathize with them.

Chmerkovskiy noted that the difficulties sometimes faced when trying to have children are not discussed enough. “The difficulty of having children is not talked about in this that happens to many women,” said the dancer. “They deal with it in a very private, inhibited, closed way that is very damaging to the psyche.”

She also revealed that she was initially skeptical of Murgatroyd’s decision to be open about their IVF journey but now sees it as a wise decision. Chmerkovskiy said, “The more real we are with each other, the better the community around.”

In August, Murgatroyd updated fans on her IVF journey with her husband. In the emotional post, the pro dancer revealed that the transplant was unsuccessful and said she is almost back on her promise to be honest about her IVF journey.

He wrote, “One of the happiest days of my life, and then 10 days later, one of the saddest moments that I will never forget. Standing on the side of the road in West Hollywood, hoping for the best…thinking it was MY time, my turn for “happiness”. But life is funny.”

Murgatroyd revealed that he has begun taking steps to turn things around and is moving forward “with an open heart.” He ended by thanking his fans along the way for their guidance and advice.

During his interview with E! News, Chmerkovskiy revealed that he has no intention of returning to “DWTS,” at least not anytime soon. Pro dancers have a history of feuding with judges and celebrity partners. Over the years, Chmerkovskiy has gone and returned to the franchise several times.

He first left the franchise in 2012 and announced that he wanted to pursue a career in acting. “What else do I have to do there after 15 seasons?” Chmerkovskiy said to Position.

“It makes sense. The audience can’t expect me to stick around, and the producers can’t expect me to stick around.”
