The couple, who tied the knot in 2022, have been open about their struggles with fertility, shedding light on the often-private battle many couples face.
The Emotional Rollercoaster of IVF

The 34-year-old explained how the process has taken both a physical and emotional toll: "Nobody prepares you for how all-consuming fertility treatment can be - the injections, the appointments, the constant cycle of hope and disappointment."
Support from the Cricket Community
Cutting, who plays for various T20 franchises around the world, has received overwhelming support from the cricket community. "The cricket family has been amazing," Holland shared. "When you're going through something like this, having that network of support makes all the difference."
The couple have been documenting parts of their journey on social media, hoping to break the stigma around fertility issues. "If our story helps even one other couple feel less alone, then sharing these painful moments will have been worth it," Holland said.
Looking to the Future
Despite the challenges, the pair remain optimistic about starting a family. "We know the statistics, we understand the odds, but we're not giving up," Holland stated. "Ben would make the most incredible father, and that keeps me going through the hardest days."
Holland's candid revelation has sparked an outpouring of support from fans and fellow celebrities alike, with many praising her bravery in speaking out about such a personal struggle.
