Gary Barlow has reached out to Chrissy Teigen and John Legend following the devastating loss of their newborn son.
Chrissy shared the heartbreaking news on Wednesday that their son, who they’d named Jack, had died minutes after birth.
And amid a flood of fan and celeb support for the couple, Gary has joined the voices by offering condolences to the couple.
Gary’s daughter Poppy was stillborn at full term in 2012, leaving him and wife Dawn bereft.
“Sending all my love, strength and best wishes @johnlegend @chrissyteigen no words can make the pain any easier,” he offered.
Amanda Holden has also sent her deepest sympathies.
She lost her stillborn son Theo when at seven months in 2011.
Kim Kardashian told Chrissy and John: “We’re always here for you and love you guys so much.”
Chrissy, who was hospitalised with heavy bleeding on Sunday, wrote in a heartbreaking post: “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..
“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.
“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. We will always love you.
“Thank you to everyone who has been sending us positive energy, thoughts and prayers. 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 everyday can’t be full of sunshine. 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.”
John, meanwhile, shared a line of black heart emojis and wrote: “We love you, Jack.”
