Nawal Farih and Sammy Mahdi break taboo after repeated pregnancy loss: “People still don’t dare to talk about it”

Nawal Farih (38) and Sammy Mahdi (37) lost an unborn child twice in the past year. The political couple — he CD&V chairman, she CD&V parliamentary faction leader — remained silent for a long time about those difficult months. Until now. “The loss cuts through your soul, but it is time to break the taboo. For the sake of the thousands of women and couples who experience this. Because how we deal with pregnancy loss in our country feels dehumanizing.”
