An educated guess
Fridge compressor kicking on while defrost is operating
The surge of the compressor while already drawing defrost power, creates an overload condition
The solution is to remove something from that circuit, , or add another breaker
Get an electrician to add a dedicated circuit for the fridge, on the new circuit breaker
