Chrissy Teigen has made a return to social media following the devastating loss of her third child at the end of last month, to tell followers that she and husband John Legend are "okay."

After announcing her miscarriage on Instagram in late September, the 34-year-old returned to social media to re-share a series of tweets from her husband John Legend, in which he also posted a clip of the performance he dedicated to his wife at the Billboard Music Awards on Wednesday.

Legend's tweets read: "This is for Chrissy. I love and cherish you and our family so much. We’ve experienced the highest highs and lowest lows together. Watching you carry our children has been so moving and humbling."

He continued: "I'm in awe of the strength you've shown through the most challenging moments. What an awesome gift it is to be able to bring life into the world. We've experienced the miracle, the power and joy of this gift, and now we've deeply felt its inherent fragility."

Chrissy captioned her post: "We are quiet but we are okay. Love you all so much."

The couple announced that they had lost their baby mid-way through pregnancy, posting heartbreaking pictures, along with the caption: "We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before. We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn't enough."

Legend and Teigen are parents to daughter Luna and son Miles. "We are so grateful for the life we have, for our wonderful babies Luna and Miles, for all the amazing things we’ve been able to experience," Teigen added. "But everyday can’t be full of sunshine. On this darkest of days, we will grieve, we will cry our eyes out. But we will hug and love each other harder and get through it."
