Teigen, who announced her pregnancy in August, went on to reveal that they had already started to call “this little guy in my belly” Jack; even though she and Legend typically wait to name their children “until the last possible moment after they’re born”.
“To our Jack – I’m so sorry that the first few moments of your life were met with so many complications; that we couldn’t give you the home you needed to survive,” she continued. “We will always love you.”
Added Legend, 41, in a tweet: “We love you, Jack.”
Teigen previously said she was about halfway through her pregnancy. She also took a moment to thank those who have sent “positive energy, thoughts and prayers”; adding, “We feel all of your love and truly appreciate you.”
“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. But every day can’t be full of sunshine,” Teigen wrote. “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.”
