It's 10am and Selling Sunset’s Mary Fitzgerald and Romain Bonnet have woken up at their luxury holiday villa in Mykonos. Retreating from their hectic lives in Los Angeles, the couple are on the trip with the Oppenheim twins, Brett and Jason, and their new girlfriends, tattoo artist Samantha Abdul and model Marie-Lou Nurk, who they met on the same Greek island earlier this summer plus a casual crew of 30 other friends).
The week-long getaway is a welcome escape for the married couple, who are recovering from a crushing blow to their plans to start a family. While they're not ready for a baby just yet, they began the costly process of freezing their embryos as a precaution in June and were devastated when the 25,000 attempt failed.
“We're going to have to start the second round of it this month,” says Mary, 42, who met the French model while he was looking for a house after relocating to LA five yeas ago. We can’t really waste any more time because of my age. m a little nervous about doing it again. don't like failure. It's so sad as women, we spend so many years trying not to get pregnant, then when you want to and you try it's impossible.”
“If we had the choice we would wait a tiny bit more,” says Romain, 29. never thought about having a baby any time soon but know we have a timeframe.”
If there’s any couple to root for on the Netflix reality show which follows the lives of an elite team of estate agents at The Oppenheim Group, a high-end real estate broker in Beverly Hills it’s Mary and Romain. Over the course of five series, we've watched them fall in love, get married and start thinking about having children of their own. Mary is already mum to 25-year-old son Austin, who she had when she was 16 and raised single-handedly.
