Anna Lewandowska Opens Up About Miscarriage, Surprising Fans with Her Honesty

Anna and Robert Lewandowski long kept secret the loss of their child. The fitness trainer was prompted to open up by Jarosław Kaczyński's remarks at a meeting with voters in Elk. The leader of the Law and Justice (PiS) political party had suggested that young Polish women weren't having children because they drank too much alcohol.

"The fewest children in Poland are in Warsaw, so it's not just an economic issue, but also a matter of people's attitudes, especially women's. Because women bear children, although today even that isn't certain. I'm not an advocate for early motherhood, but if a woman drinks before the age of 25, it's not a good prognosis," declared the conservative Polish politician, adding that a man becomes an alcoholic after 20 years of excessive drinking, while for a woman, just two years are enough.

His words sparked considerable outrage and deeply angered Anna Lewandowska. The wife of the 37-year-old footballer, now a mother of two daughters, revealed at that time that she had previously suffered a miscarriage.

"Enough! I am angry when I see politicians unfairly blaming women instead of addressing real problems. As a woman and a mother, the recent statements deeply affected me. Being a mother was my biggest dream. Before it came true, unfortunately, like other women, I also experienced a miscarriage.

According to statistics, one in five couples in Poland unsuccessfully tries to conceive. Stress, health problems, or hormonal disorders mean that the challenge isn't just getting pregnant, but also maintaining the pregnancy. So, let's not judge women who often silently fight in every possible way to see those longed-for two lines on a pregnancy test," read the words of the Barcelona striker's wife, which she posted on social media.

Anna recently participated in the Healthy Day event in Krakow, where she spoke about difficult moments in her life, first mentioning her defeat at the Karate World Championships, then discussing a particularly traumatic experience.

"It was the most important year for me, the most important moment ever. I cried like a small child, I was at rock bottom. I lost on Saturday, cried on Sunday, and started training on Monday. The next competition went better.

The second moment was the miscarriage that happened before the birth of my children. It was certainly a setback that came during a very difficult period in my husband's football career. It was an incredibly challenging year for us," Anna Lewandowska candidly admitted.
