'After that loss we went on the IVF train, It has been the hardest emotional rollercoaster for us.'
Alex went on to discuss the difficulties of IVF including the cost and the lack of support.
He continued: 'She struggles very much from someone who struggles with not being perfect, the ideal woman, someone who has issues with not being in control, everything goes out the window with IVF from gaining weight, body shape changes and for what?
'A baby at the end of the dark tunnel? If your lucky after spending £££££? Do the NHS help? Yes if you have the right postcode and only for one cycle!
'So if you can’t afford treatment or you miscarry you can’t be Parents? Why do we pay taxes?'

Speaking out: The 43-year-old star, who has been engaged to Nikki since 2014, also urged people to be more sensitive with regards to those who are struggling to start a family
He urged his followers to think again before they ask a couple why they aren't married yet or why they don't have children yet.
Alex shared: 'So the next time you ask someone why are you guys not married you have been engaged for years” or “you guys should hurry along and get baby making” maybe think before you speak.
'Maybe that couple is spending a wedding fund on fertility treatment and maybe that couple have been trying for 4 years for a family.
'Don’t take your babies for granted, cherish every single day from their first word to their first day at school because trust me when I say this.
'Many people would swap shoes with you to have the beautiful gift of raising a child the right way.'

He also posted another heartbreaking message on Twitter, saying that some women like Nikki yearn to be a mother, while 'others have that title and have no idea how to be a supporting, kind and loving mum'.
Alex was inundated with kind messages of support from fans, expressing how sorry they were for his loss.
He also responded with sensitivity to people who disagreed with his comment about not posting pregnancy or pictures of their babies on social media.
Replying to a tweet from a woman who said she shouldn't feel bad about showing off her children, Alex wrote: 'That’s never my intention! As painful as it is for us, I also smile at the happiness in others, especially the joy of their little ones, Proud parents should celebrate!'

Alex and Nikki have kept quiet about their fertility issues in recent years, after revealing in 2016 they had been giving the go-ahead to try for a baby.
At the time, Nikki had suffered a miscarriage and multiple cancer scares preventing them from extending their family.
Nikki, a laser-liposuction therapist, suffered an ectopic pregnancy back in 2013 and had also found a lump in her breast.
She told The Sun Online: 'It's been one scare then another. I was terrified, I hate hospitals and postponed the operation until 3 days after Alex's cage fight. The lump had doubled in size it was 3cms. Thank God it was benign.'

Nikki's desire for motherhood was then thwarted once again when she was examined for ovarian cancer as well - which could have threatened her ability to bear children at all.
She continued: 'When my stomach suddenly bloated I was worried it was IBS or Crones disease but also knew these are symptoms of ovarian cancer. I was terrified.'
Alex is already a father to daughter Dolly, six, with ex-partner Chantelle Houghton.
He got engaged to the Celebrity Big Brother winner in 2012, with Dolly born later that year.
A few weeks after Dolly's birth, Chantelle then took to Twitter to announce the ending of the relationship after Alex was arrested on suspicion of causing criminal damage at the couple's home.

Alex was also married to glamour model Katie Price in a Vegas wedding in 2010, but separated in January of the following year.
At the time of their engagement four years ago, Alex took to Twitter to reflect on the fact that Nikki is the woman of his dreams.
The former Hollyoaks star wrote on Twitter: 'Sitting on sofa with future Mrs Reid reminiscing all the pain misery and cheap c**p that's happened in my life, looking forward to a new start!'
'I've made some silly choices & take full responsibility for my own sadness & joy, but now have really good people around me who truly care.'
Since finding true love, Alex has been leading a more low-key lifestyle and his social media page is littered with sweet tributes to his stunning partner.

The 43-year-old star, who has been ...
It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.
Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
