On Thursday Chrissy, 34, bravely shared a series of images on Instagram from inside the hospital alongside an emotional statement after the death of her son.
Alongside black and white images from the hospital, the starlet said: “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 added: “We never decide on our babies’ names until the last possible moment after they’re born, just before we leave the hospital. But 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.”
Over the past 24 hours fans and stars have rushed to support Chrissy and John in their hour of need.

Amanda replied to a message from a fan who told Chrissy that her little one is now watching over her.
Supporter Joe Fahed wrote: “In Lebanese culture we believe babies like Jack are angels that God selectively chooses to watch over you. Sending you light.”
Amanda responded: “This is how I dealt with my loss x.”
