Miscarriages are always an unfortunate event for any couple as it entails a lot of pain and suffering. John Legend, a Grammy-winning singer/ songwriter, penned a profound letter for his model and TV presenter wife, Chrissy Teigan, revealing they have pregnancy complications, which resulted in a miscarriage.
The said picture was shared on October 1, Chrissy was seen lying in bed in hospital, visibly distraught, whilst John was cradling her. The images were captioned; “We are shocked, and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the type of problem 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.”
During the last moments of the miscarriage, Teigen expressed she never decided the baby’s name, and for some reason, she decided to call the little guy in her 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.”
On October 17, John Legend shared an emotional video to his 13.3 million Instagram followers, showing his recent performance at the Billboard Music Awards.
He performed his song, “Never break” and dedicated the song to his beloved wife, Chrissy Teigen. He captioned the post by writing a heartfelt letter: “I’m in awe of the strength you’ve shown through the most challenging moments. What an awesome gift it is to be able to bring life into the world. We’ve experienced the miracle, the power and joy of this gift, and now we’ve deeply felt its inherent fragility.”
Legend ended the post by thanking everyone for their prayers and their wishes, flowers, words of comfort, and empathy. (Photo Credit: John Legend’s Instagram account)
