Jena Sims, a swimsuit model and wife of LIV Golf star Brooks Koepka, revealed on Monday that she suffered a miscarriage.
Sims revealed the heartbreaking news in a post on Instagram. She shared a gallery of photos from her most recent pregnancy.
“At 16 weeks, we learned that our baby’s heart had stopped beating. This is a grief no parent is ever prepared for. We are devastated, but remain hopeful to give Crew a sibling one day,” she wrote in the caption of the post.
“Too often, these struggles happen in silence. There is still so much work and research needed to better understand and support women’s reproductive health. If you’re experiencing or have experienced pregnancy loss or infertility, please know you are not alone.”
Sims empathized with the medical professionals who have to break this kind of news to their patients.
