In Season 1 of Doubling Down with the Derricos, TLC fans saw that Deon and his wife raised 11 children. She expected triplets, which pushed the brood to 14 kids. The kids comprised of twins, quints, triplets, and singletons. However despite all the kids now, at one stage she struggled with falling pregnant. In fact, before Darian arrived, she experienced a miscarriage. In the current season, fans heard GG, Deon’s mom, ask them when “enough is enough.” Well, the baby she expected this time around miscarried.
DDWTD fans saw that Karen Derrico fell pregnant again. It came during the episode on June 8. However, a scan revealed an empty sac. So, her doctor suggested they wait and try again. The bad news was then confirmed, that she had, indeed, lost the child. Deon took it very hard, especially as it came just when he worries about Diez who might need brain surgery. Obviously, a lot of fans sent in their messages to Karen in her DMs. She took to Instagram on Tuesday, June 22, and thanked them for supporting her.

After DDWTD fans sent their messages of support to Karen Derrico, she thanked them and said they “comforted” her. Next, she encouraged her fans who experienced the same story to share and “not carry that burden alone.” Additionally, she sent them “love and hugs.” Well, fans felt willing and happy to share their miscarriage experiences, and that made them feel comforted as well. One Doubling Down with the Derricos fan wrote, “I’m going through it right now. It’s a horrible feeling. Thank you for sharing with us because it makes us feel not alone in that situation.”
