Chrissy Teigen and
John Legend have shared the devastating news about the loss of their baby.
The couple, took to their social media handles to share a heartbreaking post about their son, who could not survive complications during the pregnancy. This sad news comes moments after Teigen revealed that she was hospitalised and that her baby boy was in the "danger zone."
“We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before. We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn’t enough,” Chrissy said in the caption of an Instagram post that saw her in tears with her hands joined in prayers in her hospital bed.
She went on to reveal that although they usually waited until the baby was born to name them, Chrissy said “We, for some reason, had started to call this little guy in my belly Jack. So he will always be
Jack
to us. Jack worked so hard to be a part of our little family, and he will be, forever.”
The couple released a set of photos, including one that saw them weeping as they held Jack swaddled in a blanket following the
miscarriage
.
While thanking fans and friends for their support during these trying times, the couple said, “We are so grateful for the life we have, for our wonderful babies
Luna
and
Miles
, for all the amazing things we’ve been able to experience.”
They concluded, “But everyday can’t be full of sunshine. On this darkest of days, we will grieve, we will cry our eyes out. But we will hug and love each other harder and get through it.”
Chrissy shared her shock about the miscarriage in a tweet that read, “Driving home from the hospital with no baby. How can this be real?”
John and Chrissy, who are parents to two children – Luna and Miles, announced in August that they were expecting their third child. The couple made the happy announcement in Legend’s ‘Wild’ music video.
