Madison De La Garza is grieving the loss of her first child.
The Desperate Housewives alum, younger sister of Demi Lovato, shared Oct. 26 that she underwent a cesarean section surgery last month to deliver her and boyfriend Ryan Mitchell‘s daughter, who they named Xiomara, but that the newborn did not survive.
“On the evening of September 27th, after an emergency C-section, Ryan and I held our little girl for the first time and last time,” Madison, 22, wrote on Instagram. “Thank you, Xiomara, for making us parents to the most perfect angel in heaven. Mommy and Daddy love you sweet girl.”
Demi shared her sister’s post on her Instagram Stories. “RIP to my beautiful, perfect niece Xiomara,” the 32-year-old wrote. “I’m so grateful I got to hold you. I’ll forever be your auntie. I love you so much @maddelagarza.”
The “Confident” singer’s fiancé Jutes, 33, commented on Madison’s post, “I love you so much. Rest easy baby angel Xiomara.”
