Katie Bates has revealed the devastating news that she suffered a miscarriage.
The 25-year-old Bringing Up Bates star posted an Instagram video on Saturday in which she cried, ‘I just lost my baby,’ while lying in a hospital bed.
The clip began with Bates showing a positive pregnancy test and later purchasing a baby onesie before surprising husband Travis Clark with the news that they were expecting.
The couple are already parents to daughter Hailey, who will turn three in February, and son Harvey, one.
A voiceover was layered over the video’s various clips and recited, ‘I think I will ask God why for the rest of my life. And never will I come to understand it. Even if God himself came in front of me and told me the reason, I don’t think I would accept it.
‘Some loves are too hard to bear and with great love comes great pain. And with great loss comes the greatest pain of all. If love could’ve saved you, you would’ve lived forever.’
Bates captioned the clip, ‘I will spend the rest of my life missing you.’
