In a vulnerable and candid highlight on her Instagram Story, London sharedher journey with endometriosis, answering questions for followers about what she’s learned and what works for her. She said she first experienced symptoms at age 12 with her first period and wasn’t officially diagnosed with the condition until nearly 12 years later; she’s also had surgical procedures to treat her endometriosis.
“If you’re looking for how to be a good friend to a chronic sufferer, pick them up … help them feel validated & believed, because what they’re saying is true,” she wrote.
According to London, Nathan is “supportive in any way he can be” and she doesn’t take his care for granted. “I tell him all the time that it takes a special man to be an endo husband … or caretaker of ANY type when it comes to chronic illnesses,” she wrote.
Nathan, too, has opened up about how London’s diagnosis has impacted their life together.
“It’s really rough and there’s no cure. You can have surgery and do certain things for it, but there’s really nothing to be done,” Nathan shared in a conversation forMan Enough to Care. “That wasn’t something I was really aware of … she didn’t know for a long time, she just knew something was wrong.”
She’s a mother of three

We know a couple we’re thinking about, but we know we don’t want to do anything until it’s out there.”
The couple dealt withseveral miscarriagesbefore thebirth of their second daughter, Evie Elise, on March 20, 2021. “My wife is superhuman, and doing extremely well,” Nathan wrote on Instagram at the time. “My children are the greatest little gifts on the planet, and I still can’t seem to stop crying.”
