Natalie found out she was pregnant during filming after joking with her sister.
Natalie, who has been dating her boyfriend Devin Perez for over a year, revealed on FaceTime that she was dating her twin sister Hope Anderson and said she was having a late period. She was joking: Maybe we’ll get pregnant and have kids when I get back! She said it was a joke, but the producer decided to give her a pregnancy test anyway. She told us that when the test came back positive, she had trouble wrapping her brain around her finger:
I’m a different person when I’m at these shows – like there’s nothing stopping me from getting what I want or trying to get what I want. So it was a strange wave of happiness, shock, surprise and disappointment. I didn’t even digest what I was really feeling. I was thinking: How am I pregnant? I want to win the money!
I love my boyfriend, but he’s not here. It was just the most embarrassing way to find out you’re pregnant because it could have been an incredible feeling, but I couldn’t feel it because I was so confused and disoriented that I had to stop playing the game, but at the same time I was very excited and happy.
She said that when she finally returned from Iceland to the United States, she made the trip and discovered she had eight weeks to go. She stated that she was in very good health and continued to practice pregnancy-safe exercises. She said she miscarried a week later.
It was really hard because I came into this world and left the game and said goodbye to the competitive challenge I love, came home and changed my mind on this new journey, she said. And that was taken away from me. It was hard for me.
Thefans were devastated when Natalie left the Challenge after doing well in the first episodes of.
There was a lot of hype around Natalie when she came to the Challenge as a rookie after winning Survivor, especially after winning her gold skull in the first episode, so naturally fans were upset when she went home early. Natalie also told us how hard it was to leave: For me, the money was usually in my pocket, the check already written. The money was mine, and no one was after my skulls. I was literally waiting for the finale so I could get ahead of everyone else and get my money’s worth.
A fan said: Natalie’s departure made me so sad…. The other added one: I heard what happened to Natalie and why she left. It’s so sad. I hope she feels better. People want them back next season!
Natalie, it’s heartbreaking to hear what you’ve been through, and I commend you for sharing it. It’s not always talked about and it can mean a lot to families who have experienced a similar situation. I hope you’re okay @NatalieeAnd #TheChallenge36 #TheChallenge https://t.co/JRwBEDoK5S

They really should give them pregnancy tests before they go on the show. First Melissa, now Natalie. #TheChallenge36 https://t.co/TQtqRHB98F
