Alicia Vikander is sharing intimate details about her journey to becoming a mom.

The Oscar-winning actor recently spoke with The Sunday Times , opening up about portraying a character who suffers a miscarriage after battling her own extreme and painful pregnancy loss.

We have a child now, but it took us time, Vikander, who shares a 17-month-old son with Michael Fassbender , told the Times.

In 2017, the pair reportedly tied the knot at the La Granja resort in Ibiza.

Vikander and Fassbender met while working on the 2016 film The Light Between Oceans. In the movie, Vikander plays a character who suffers two pregnancy losses.

In Vikanders new show, Irma Vep, one of the storylines also follows a character who experiences a pregnancy loss.

Talk about meta, the actor told the Times.
