So You Think You Can Dance alum Brooklyn Larsen shares devastating news about stillbirth of second baby

Brooklyn Larsen announced the tragic news that her second baby was stillborn on Monday.

She shared that she and her husband Tanner Larsen ‘are completely shattered’ after losing their baby, their first child together.

In a joint Instagram post the grieving couple shared on Thursday, the reality TV personality, 29, said that she went into labor on Sunday at ’40 weeks and 2 days.’

The So You Can Think You Can Dance alum, who appeared on the 11th season of the long-running compeтιтion series, said ‘our best day became our worst’ when they were told by medical professionals that they were unable to find the baby’s heartbeat.

The couple — who got married in August — mourned the loss of their first child together; Larsen is mother to three-year-old son Rome from a past relationship. 

In a gut-wrenching, emotional post, they shared four pH๏τos of them saying goodbye to their stillborn son and cradling the infant in the hospital bed.

They continued: ‘The following couple of hours were a complete blur. It didn’t make sense. Every single checkup, every ultrasound, every test had shown nothing but a healthy baby.

‘He was always measuring big, always moving, always so active,’ the pair wrote. 

‘We never imagined that this could happen,’ they continued. ‘In an instant, our best day became our worst. 

‘At 11:23am on Monday morning, Brooklyn delivered our son in less than 9 minutes. 8 lbs 10 oz of pure perfection,’ the couple wrote. 

‘He was strong, beautiful, and was the perfect mix of Tanner and Rome. Holding him, memorizing every feature of his, feeling his spirit—he was everything we had dreamed of,’ they added.

They shared that they were ‘blessed’ to be able to spend time with their baby during the deeply emotional time.
