"I exercise every single day. But as I came to realize, that doesn't really go hand-in-hand with the reproductive system."
Maksim also added: "I never thought that two healthy, athletic people could be in a predicament like this. It's a lot to process."
The couple had long been keen to give their son a sibling, telling Entertainment Tonight in February 2020 that they were starting the process of in vitro fertilization.
