Los Angeles, California - Rebel Wilson is known for her contagious smiles and cheeky quips, but in her latest Instagram post, the actor took an unexpectedly serious tone.

In the post, the 41-year-old is dressed from head to toe in black as she looks towards the ground with a pensive expression on her face. Behind her, the vast sea extends below a melancholy sunset.

The text accompanying the image is full of emotion: "I got some bad news today," she begins before addressing her female fans.

"To all the women out there struggling with fertility, I feel ya. The universe works in mysterious ways and sometimes it all doesn’t make sense," she continues to write.

"Wow, that is incredibly personal and brave of you to share," one wrote. Another assured her, "The dark clouds are only temporary."
