According to recent news from la Reunion, there has been no world record broken by Nathalie Desreac...

Whether there has been no attempt or whether she faled is unsure...

Basically she said she was:
A) pregnant
B) stressed and depressed, crying every day
C) unable to practice for 1 month prior, due to bad weather

Edited, as Eric was faster with the same information.

Ok, this is just plain off topic.

But how would extreme apnea while pregnant affect the developing fetus? Can't be good I imagine. Let's hope everything goes ok for them.

Sorry to hear she didn't make it...

My wife and I was in Egypt when she was pregnant, but she did not know by then.

We were freediving and she could not hold her breath at all. At earlier vacations she did comfortable dives to 10m in 40-50 sec but not this trip, she could only snorkel....
I joked with her about beeing pregnant during the divesessions.

When we came back we found out that she was pregnant and that explained her bad performance.
