Gwyneth Paltrow has earned herself a reputation as a little bit...above the normal mortal experience, but in a recent interview, she opened up about a very human moment in life, one that had massive emotional repercussions for her: While pregnant with her third child, she suffered a miscarriage.

In an interview with British newspaper The Daily Mail, the actress and mother of two opens up about what happened:

"My children ask me to have a baby all the time, and you never know — I could squeeze one more in... [but] I had a really bad experience when I was pregnant with my third and it didn’t work out and I nearly died."

The quote came on the heels of Paltrow admitting that she is somewhat in love with Beyonce and Jay-Z's daughter, Blue Ivy.

Paltrow is married to Coldplay lead singer Chris Martin, and has a son and a daughter, Moses and Apple, respectively.
