Married At First Sight star Elizabeth Sobinoff has shared the pregnancy news that made her feel like “a failure” in the latest of a series of intimate life updates.

The 32-year-old has been remarkably open about the highs and lows of her first pregnancy with husband Alex Varga, taking her 395,000 followers along for the ride.

On Wednesday, Sobinoff took to Instagram to share one of her more vulnerable moments, breaking down in tears in a piece to camera.

“I guess this is the reality of pregnancy as well, you know. I had to call in sick to work and it’s like … I’m just that exhausted,” she divulged.

“This is the reality of pregnancy … You just feel really exhausted and tired and you start to feel like a bit of a failure.

“I thought this was a good thing to put on social media, just the reality of things.”

Sobinoff assured fans that, despite the tears, her pregnancy was an exciting experience.

“I’m on a journey and I’m so excited but I thought I’ll showcase some of the not so glamorous moments of my journey,” she captioned the post.

“I know these feelings pass. I think it’s cool to show these moments as well. All feelings are validated, this is just an honest moment when I was in the moment.”

The expectant mum also shared the Lifeline number — 13 11 14 — alongside the post.

Many of Sobinoff’s fans thanked her for her honesty.

“This is exactly why I love you … so real, so raw … so beautiful. We tend to put a ‘it’s just growing a baby’ but omg, it needs to have so much more emphasis on it … it’s the most exhausting and challenging thing your body will ever, ever do and girl, you are doing it. You are nailing it!!” one follower wrote.

“Thank you for normalising the hard times of pregnancy. It isn’t all sunshine and rainbows,” another commented.

“It’s so hard and I’m so proud of you,” praised a third.

Unfortunately, not everyone was so supportive. Less than an hour after sharing her first video, Sobinoff shared an update responding to some of the unkind comments she’d received.

“Some of the comments came underneath saying, ‘Oh you wait ‘til you have the baby’ and ‘suck it up’. I’m just putting out a real honest moment of how I was feeling,” she said.

“Just bringing some truth out there that I was having a crappy moment. I think it’s great to share that.”

The update caused many followers to double down on how great it was to see an expectant mum be so vulnerable.

“Seeing a raw human moment and knowing that it’s ok was so amazing to see,” one fan wrote.

“You keep being your inspirational, amazing, sometimes snot producing self! I’m here for it.”
