Jade Roper Tolbert Reveals What Caused Her Miscarriage and How Grief Is ‘Hitting Me Hard’
Opening up.
Bachelor Nation fan-favorite couple Jade Roper Tolbert and Tanner Tolbert first fell in love and got engaged on the beach during Season 2 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Since then, they’ve welcomed three children together: Emerson, Brooks, and Reed.
And in August, the Bachelor Nation star took to social media to share the heartbreaking news that she was navigating a miscarriage.
At the time, Jade shared, “I’ve been trying to protect my peace and respect my baby, so I’ve only been sharing bits and pieces here and there to hopefully maybe help someone else feel less alone going through this. I see you, I feel your pain, and I love you. And to Beau, I carried your body for almost 5 months, your soul for a little less, but I carry you with me in my heart everywhere and for always.”
Now, Jade is opening up in a new Q&A about her pregnancy loss and how she’s been moving through grief.
She revealed what caused the miscarriage, saying, “Our sweet Beau was diagnosed with Down Syndrome, so we think his tiny heart wasn’t strong enough. A lot of DS diagnoses are accompanied with congenital heart conditions.”
Jade shared how this week has been a hard week for her as she continues to process the loss.
The Bachelor Nation star wrote, “My grief is hitting me hard today. I’ve cried multiple times throughout the day and tough feelings always make me feel paralyzed. I planned to do so much today and instead haven’t accomplished much. Just wanted to touch on this because if you feel alone in your grief, I want you to know that I’m with you.”
Jade continued on, saying, “You are still worthy even on the days you feel like you’re just getting by. I’m a big believer in you gotta feel it to heal it, but man, it is painful.”
We’re continuing to keep Jade and the entire Tolbert family in our thoughts as they move through this difficult time and heartbreaking loss of Beau.
We know that Jade continuing to share her experience is helping so many others who are going through something similar.
