Hafthor Julius Bjornsson, is amongst the world's most popular strongmen. This Icelander vaulted to fame through his role in the TV series "Game of Thrones", where he brought the character "The Mountain" to life. Measuring an intimidating 6 feet 10 inches tall, he is renowned for his formidable physical stature.

His wife, Kelsey Henson, is a Canadian model, influencer, and blogger. The couple brought joy to their fans last month when they announced they were expecting their second child. The pair is also parents to a four-year-old son.

The couple had anticipated welcoming their new addition in March of the coming year, but sorrowfully, this will not be the case. Bjornsson conveyed the tragic news on his social media platforms.

"Grace Morgan Hafthorsdottir, arrived prematurely on November 8 at just 21.5 weeks of gestation", he emotionally penned on Instagram. Henson heartbreakingly revealed that their daughter's heart had stopped beating, leading to a stillbirth. In their time of mourning, the couple chose to share photos on their social media platforms, but due to their graphic nature, we have decided not to include them herein.

Expressing themselves on social media, the couple noted: "Words cannot encapsulate the pain caused by our loss, or the happiness derived from the fleeting moments we spent with our daughter."
