Lauren Miller, an executive on the reality TV show Real Housewives, has tragically passed away.
According to the Daily Mail, Miller died on June 9 just minutes after giving birth to her son, Jackson. Shed Media, the company behind the Real Housewives series, posted a statement on its official Instagram account at the start of the week. It said, "Our beloved colleague, Lauren, passed away unexpectedly just moments after giving birth to her baby boy, and we share that with devastated hearts."
Miller is survived by her husband, Kevin, their three-year-old daughter, Emma, and their newborn son. In order to aid her husband in "taking on this unexpected role as sole provider of the family," the statement also asked people to think about making a donation.
Several pictures of Miller and her happy times with her family were also included in the post.
Her husband, Kevin, said that he felt "blessed by God" that she chose to live with him and have "two beautiful children to remember her every minute of every day." He genuinely thanked everyone who had reached out and asked them to keep his family in their prayers.
Friends remembered Miller not just for her warm smile and kind heart but also for how deeply she loved her family—husband Kevin, three-year-old Emma, and newborn Jackson, who was only five days old.
A link to the GoFundMe page, already over $132,000 toward its $150,000 target and posted by Lauren Miller's coworkers, hasn't been shared widely. The page calls her death an unimaginably difficult loss and says nothing can truly fill the space she has left behind.
Celebrities like Housewives stars Sai De Silva, Tamra Judge, and Heather Gay also joined the flood of condolences, sending prayers and support.
