Ukrainian actress Victoria Bilan has publicly supported singer Iryna Fedyshyn following the tragic news of the loss of her child, sharing her own difficult experience of a complex pregnancy and calling on society to show basic humanity. This became known from the actress's post on Instagram, where she spoke about the threat she faced at 33 weeks of pregnancy and appealed to haters with a call to stop harassing the grieving family.
Personal Experience and Difficult Memories
The actress admitted that she is not personally acquainted with Iryna Fedyshyn, but the artist's tragedy deeply resonated with her due to similar trials in the past. Bilan shared that at the 33rd week of carrying her child, she faced a serious threat of losing the baby, but was forced to continue working. Due to financial necessity, she was on hospital bed rest while simultaneously working to earn money for a living and preserve the long-awaited pregnancy amidst the indifference of others. According to the celebrity, she still vividly remembers that paralyzing fear when you are afraid to make any extra movement and listen to every internal movement of the child.
The Tragedy of Iryna Fedyshyn's Family
The loss of the child occurred at the 35th week of the singer's pregnancy, as officially reported by her husband and producer Vitaliy Chelnyk. Later, he shared the details of the incident, noting that Iryna survived difficult childbirth, a complex surgical operation, and massive blood loss, as a result of which doctors literally fought for her life. The man thanked the medical staff for saving his wife and added that their family now faces a long and difficult path of overcoming the pain of loss.
Rejection of Routine Phrases and a Call for Silence
Addressing the singer, Victoria Bilan emphasized that she deliberately avoids standard comforts such as demanding strength, since a woman is not obliged to demonstrate resilience when her familiar world is collapsing. The actress wished that close people who are able to simply hug and support in silence without unnecessary questions would be by Fedyshyn's side. She made a separate emphasis on the behavior of users on social media, urging authors of malicious comments to show empathy and choose silence if they have no kind words.
The Importance of Public Support in Crisis Situations
Such open statements by famous individuals play an important role in shaping a culture of compassion in the media space, reducing the level of toxicity on the internet during tragic events. Bilan's statement highlights the vulnerability of public figures whose personal pain often becomes the subject of public discussion and unjustified criticism. It is expected that the resonance around this appeal will force users to approach writing comments more responsibly and respect someone else's grief.
