The actress announced the news that she was expecting in November posting a photograph of her partner kissing her cheek, revealing that she had suffered six miscarriages prior to her announcement.
Her post was captioned, “It’s baby time. After 6 miscarriages we are saying prayers for OPM ? ??#MadHappy.” She and MC, with whom she’s been engaged at least two years, confirmed that she was expecting a daughter in early January with a photo of a growing baby bump and her puppy Rocky cradled in her lap. She captioned the precious moment, “The GIRLS ?.”

The baby would have been Marcil’s second child. The 49-year-old is also mother to 15-year-old Kassius Lijah, her son with her former “Beverly Hills, 90210” co-star Brian Austin Green.
She and MC confirmed their engagement in April 2015 when Marcil shared a photo of her manicure and a gold band on her ring finger. Her impending nuptials to “MC” will be her third walk down the aisle — Marcil was first married to former child star Corey Feldman from 1989 to 1993.
Marcil was also previously married to “CSI: NY’s” Carmine Giovinazzo, whom she split from in 2013. Giovinazzo confirmed some of their maternity woes in 2011, when he tweeted under Marcil’s account, “V has had a miscarriage. our second one this year.”
“Thanx [sic] for the love and prayers,” he added.
Our thoughts and prayers are with the family.
