Chrissy Teigen has suffered a miscarriage.
The model and entrepreneur shared the heartbreaking news on Twitter today, revealing she and husband John Legend had chosen the name Jack for their third child.
Teigen, 34, was around halfway through her pregnancy.
She posted a series of worrying updates this week about her high-risk pregnancy, revealing she's been hospitalised after bleeding "constantly".
"I was always, always bleeding. The blood has been going on for a little less than a month. More than a period, definitely not spotting," Teigen told her 31 million Instagram followers in a series of updates from her hospital bed.
"Every time I'd go to the bathroom, it would be blood. Even just laying there, it would be blood. Today the big difference was it was like if you'd turn a faucet on to low and leave it," she said.
"I was at the point today where I was never stopping bleeding, and that's obviously really bad."
Teigen said the complication had been "hard to come to terms with" because she otherwise felt "really good" and loved being pregnant.
