Singer Christina Perri has given birth to her rainbow baby…
Scroll down for the full story.
Perri is already a mom to 4-year-old daughter, Carmella with her husband Paul Costabile, but this news is much needed after suffering 2 pregnancy losses.
One of which was the tragic loss of her daughter Rosie in November of the same year, who was stillborn.
Perri first suffered a miscarriage in January 2020 at eleven weeks.
“We are shocked & completely heartbroken,” she said on Instagram at the time. “We were only one week away from sharing the news. … When the time feels right we will try again, but today, we mourn our little life lost.”
Not long after, they revealed they were expecting again in July 2020.
“Carmella is gonna be a big sister !!!” Perri wrote via Instagram in a post that has since been deleted. “Our rainbow baby is coming in January.”
Tragically 4 months later, their baby was “born silent.”
Perri, who named their baby Rosie, tweeted, “She is at peace now and will live forever in our hearts.”
However, in May, things began to look up for the couple as they announced some amazing news…
Perri was pregnant again.
Perri announced she was expecting a baby on Instagram to her 1.1 million followers by posting a heartwarming video featuring her husband and daughter.
In the video, we can see what appears to be the steps of their house, with a box wrapped in a bow and a pink balloon. The clip shows little Carmella opening the present, and to her surprise, there are sonograms of her little baby sister inside.
In the sweet clip, we can hear Perri telling her daughter “It’s in my belly!” which prompts Carmella to kiss her mom’s baby bump.
As the video closes, Carmella can be heard saying: “I love you, mom.”
Perri captioned the video: “Rosie sent Carmella a little sister and we’re very excited. we’ve been having all the feelings, but mostly trying every day to choose joy.”
The announcement has been met with an outpouring of love and support from fans online, with many wishing her the best and sending their congratulations to the pair.
One Instagram friend wrote: “Still sobbing over this, friend!!!!!! Just so so so excited for you!!!!”
Perri’s brother Nick Perri also commented, sharing a series of hearts in response to the news.
Actress Jamie Lynn Sigler also wrote a sweet message: “So happy for you and your beautiful family!!!!!”
