“I am sharing in the hopes that we can be a light for people going through similar circumstances,” Eva wrote, “and to remind myself and others that there is no shame in voicing our heartbreaks and allowing others to comfort us.”

Eva went on to say she had been “feeling great” throughout the pregnancy and that she and Kyle were “scared and joyful at the same time” for Marlowe to be a big sister so soon.

“Two babies under two! I was filled with nervous excitement,” Eva said. “So amazed that Marlowe would have a sibling so close in age. Kyle and I hoped it was another girl.”

The Brown University grad and daughter to Susan Sarandon continued her emotional post, offering candid words of sorrow and encouragement.

“To anybody enduring similar heartache, I will tell you what I’m feeling and processing as a result of this loss: A lot of confusion, some anger, deep sadness, and also an immense amount of gratitude,” she said. “I have realized in the past forty-eight hours how incredibly grateful I am for the magic that I have in my life.”

Eva thanked her “amazingly supportive husband,” “loving families” and “wonderful friends” for their compassion during such a difficult time, and noted that having “a healthy and happy daughter” helps ease the pain “most of all.”
