Last year was an incredibly difficult one for Dancing With The Stars pro Peta Murgatroyd. She bravely chose to open up about her miscarriages and fertility issues before announcing that she and her husband Maks Chmerkovskiy would try IVF. Sadly, things didn’t go as planned and the treatment didn’t work.

To take her mind off things, Peta joined the cast of DWTS Season 31. Unfortunately, she and her partner Jason Lewis were eliminated first. Then just a few weeks ago, the 36-year-old dancer announced that her father passed away.

But amid all the heartbreak and hardship, Peta Murgatroyd still found a reason to smile. She’s completely overjoyed about the news she has to share with her followers.
