Former “Laguna Beach” star Lo Bosworth opened up about why she had to miss the 20th anniversary press day, sharing that she is preparing for an upcoming surgery.
Lo Bosworth Opens Up About Medical Complications After Giving Birth
“No, I’m not at the Laguna press day. Not because I don’t want to be there,” Bosworth shared via social media on Friday, March 27. “I just had a baby and I have to get some placenta removed next week, surgically, that was accidentally left behind. Wishing everybody a great day!”
The MTV alum captioned her video, “I didn’t go!!!! But not bc I didn’t want to – I did! I live in NYC and I just had a babbbyyyy and I have to have a fragment of placenta removed in a few days. I wore my black and white outfit at home yesterday in solidarity lol.”
Bosworth—who was one of the original castmates of “Laguna Beach” and went on to star in the spinoff series, “The Hills”—became a new mom in January.
The California native gave birth to a baby girl, daughter Nelle, whom she shares with husband Dom Natale, earlier this year.
“She started the year by surprising us two weeks early, but really, she was right on time. Our teeny one is named for her Oma and already so loved,” she captioned her announcement post.
