Chrissy Teigen has broken her social media silence to pen a heartbreaking message to fans following the loss of her and her husband John Legend's baby boy Jack.
The star shared the sad news that she had suffered a miscarriage in early October. The couple said they were in "deep pain" over the loss, as The Inquisitr reported.
After staying off Twitter and Instagram for a while, Chrissy wrote a statement on her Medium to thank her supporters and reflect on the whole experience.
"I didn't really know how I would start this, no matter the room or state I was in, but it feels right to begin with a thank you," she began her essay, describing the flowers, notes and social media messages they had received from strangers.
Chrissy, 34, went on to explain how she had been diagnosed with partial placenta abruption, which happens when the placenta partly or completely separates from the inner wall of the uterus.
Eventually, she was told by a doctor it was "time to say goodbye" to Jack. She recalled going into "full blown convulsions of snot and tears" before oxygen was placed over her nose and mouth.
"That was the first picture you saw. Utter and complete sadness," the model confessed.
Immediately after the miscarriage, Chrissy and John shared photos of themselves at the hospital, alongside a statement.
