00:00 Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is also known for his fiery speeches during
00:06 debates and interviews.
00:07 However, in a recent interview, he exposed another side of him when he revealed quite
00:13 an emotional side of his personality.
00:15 As he tried to hold back his tears during a family discussion session in Ayoba, Vivek
00:20 shared the tale of losing his first child in a miscarriage.
00:25 Ramaswamy said he and his wife, Apoorva, who is a throat surgeon, had it all planned.
00:30 He said that they wanted to have their first child after she finished her residency.
00:34 When that happened, they both were ecstatic and even wrote a journal to their future kid.
00:39 He continued to narrate the ordeal.
00:42 Ramaswamy said that within three and a half months into the pregnancy, his wife woke up
00:46 one day bleeding and had a miscarriage.
00:50 He went on to say that as the couple moved on to the second pregnancy, it wasn't easy
00:55 either.
00:56 But he said that they braved the struggle.
00:58 Ramaswamy then gestured for his three-year-old son to join him on stage after detailing how
01:03 his wife, Apoorva, thought she had suffered a second miscarriage.
01:07 The Republicans, battling to be their party's alternative to former President Donald Trump,
01:11 came together Friday for a different kind of cattle call, bringing personal and at times
01:16 emotional stories to what an influential Iowa Christian organization built as a friendly
01:20 conversation.
01:21 However, Trump did not attend, though he was invited.
01:26 Former Governor Nikki Haley of South Carolina also mentioned the difficulties she had getting
01:30 pregnant.
01:31 Wanda Platt later asked her to address her stance on abortion, which calls for consensus
01:36 on the issue.
01:37 Haley has urged Republicans to not push for a national abortion ban with next to no chance
01:41 of passing Congress.
01:43 But when pressed by Wanda Platt on whether she would have signed a new law banning most
01:47 abortions after about six weeks of pregnancy as governor, as Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds
01:52 did this year, she said, "Yes."
