AFL star Toby Pink and his wife Chloe announced that an embryo transfer during their IVF journey was unsuccessful. The couple revealed on Sunday that they had undergone the transfer and were pictured celebrating with a box of French fries, part of an internet IVF tradition. They shared the update publicly on social media, a choice Chloe said was deliberate.
In a Wednesday post, the couple revealed the embryo did not stick during the transfer. They described the news as 'incredibly disheartening and heartbreaking, but unfortunately, it's also the reality of this journey'. They said they are unsure of their next steps: 'Whether we go straight into another transfer or take some time off to give ourselves a break, we're just taking things as they come.'
Chloe explained why the couple have chosen to document their fertility journey publicly. She said infertility is something many people experience but rarely discuss openly. 'If sharing our journey helps make infertility even slightly less taboo, or makes just one person going through it feel a little less alone, then I'll continue to share the good, the bad and everything in between,' she said. The couple's followers responded with support, including messages from high-profile friends.
