Evelyn Lozada Miscarriage: 'Livin' Lozada' Star Talks About Losing Baby

Former Basketball Wives reality star, Evelyn Lozada opened up about her newest reality show Livin' Lozada on OWN and her recent miscarriage she revealed last month.

In an interview with VH1, Evelyn said that she decided to take some time away from reality TV following the media circus after her high profile divorce and domestic abuse scandal with former NFL star, Chad Johnson.

"I took almost two and a half years off of my life just to kind of really be able to focus on the things that I needed work on which is myself and my family and when the opportunity came with OWN I thought that it was just a perfect fit as far as where my life is at. I felt like I was going to give the world a glimpse of my life. I did it to really inspire women that have been through some similar situations and to show that there is a light at the end of the tunnel, especially after something so tragic, with the whole domestic violence situation. I think so many times women just give up and think that life is over, and that's really why I decided to do it," she said.

In 2014, Evelyn welcomed her baby boy, Carl Leo Crawford and recently announced that she went through an unfortunate miscarriage after publicly announcing her pregnancy. She says it was hard watching the first episode of her new show when she announced the good news, only to have to turn around and announce the loss.

"I will say that my feed was flooded with people congratulating me [after I announced my pregnancy on episode one] and that was a little difficult but no, I think even when I did Basketball Wives, I've always been very open about everything. I found out that I was pregnant [and] literally the very next day I was gonna start filming. Everybody was super excited and then you know obviously what happened, happened. So, no I wasn't worried about it. I felt like this is my life this is my reality, this is my story, and I wanted to share it with the world just because it was so real and so raw. When you have a miscarriage, especially for women, I feel like most women it's something that you deal with alone and I wanted to share that with women just to know that they're not alone, in a sense."
