Pretty Little Liars star Shay Mitchell reveals she suffered a miscarriage; read the heartbreaking revelation

"Pretty Little Liars" star Shay Mitchell has revealed that she suffered a miscarriage in a heartbreaking social media post. We have to say that this is really heartbreaking news.

It is being reported that the 31-year-old actress made the candid announcement on her Instagram Story.

'I miscarried and lost the child of my hopes and dreams,' wrote Shay in the post. It is being reported that the series of posts began with a reflection of the year that had just passed.

'Although it was an amazing year it didn't come without hardships,' began the actress.

Then she shared an ultrasound image of a baby along with a broken heart emoji.

'We all have to deal with various struggles and challenges in life,' began the Canadian star's follow-up post.

'And sometimes it's easier to only showcase the good times on social media, which is what leads many people to criticize it for its lack of authenticity.'

'The support and affection that so many of you show me lifts me up during even my darkest days, one of which happened last year after I miscarried and lost the child of my hopes and dreams,' admitted the Bliss author.

'In the spirit of the new year, I think that we need to remember that we are all on this journey together—in good times and in bad—and to remind ourselves that we seldom really know or understand the struggles and hardships that other people are going through.'

Shay concluded: 'So, for 2019, let's all try to be a little more compassionate, empathetic, patient and thoughtful with each other.'

'This sounds like a great resolution to me. I hope that you agree. Happy New Year everyone!'

Shay Mitchell apparently has made no public mention of the father, but she apparently has been most recently linked with Canadian TV host and music reporter Matte Babel. On the professional front, Shay had a good year with a starring role in the hit tv show "YOU" and her new horror movie "The Possession of Hannah Grace" having been received favourably.
