Lately, on 1st August in 2020, they celebrated their tenth wedding anniversary. On the Occasion, Michelle shared a rare wedding picture of them, on her social media and captioned:

“Today makes 10 years ✨ if I knew then what I know now, I’d still do that shit. Love is everythang y’all ✨”

Together, Gijs and Michelle are the most loving and caring parents to their twins, Hazel and Otis van der Most, born in January 2019.

Although the journey thus was surely not an easy one.

They tried having kids for a year, but it was not successful for them. Michelle then went to see a doctor and was then diagnosed with prolactinoma. This meant, she had high levels of the hormone that impacts breast milk and can cause infertility.

Next, they kept trying for another year and went through a couple of rounds of IVF, and had four miscarriages. “I felt like I was being punished for wanting a baby…I was 36 then”, Michelle even today recalls the saddening phase of her life.

Finally, the two found a surrogate who successfully gave birth to their twins. And, now they are the happiest family of four, living in the Bronx.

Not long ago, during home quarantine with her family amid the pandemic, Michelle said that she would not want to change anything in her life now, no matter how handy her curly-haired boys are.
