Tori Foles, wife of Super Bowl LII champion and new Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Nick Foles, revealed this week that the couple suffered a miscarriage.
“Early Sunday morning after a rough couple days fighting a ‘virus’ of some sort, I went into sudden labor and knew something was wrong. Not long after we learned we had miscarried our baby boy,” Tori posted in a heartfelt Instagram message on Wednesday.
Tori said the loss at 15 weeks of pregnancy was caused by pneumonia. Despite facing a barrage of emotions, the Christian couple said they are holding on to their faith in God.
“To fully labor and deliver and even see our baby boy was a pretty devastating process,” she wrote. “Come to find that I had contracted an infection of pneumonia in the blood. The emotions go back and forth from immense and overwhelming sadness, confusion and anger to a firm belief that God has this fully in His hands and will use this for good.”
The couple, who also have a daughter, said they now understand the grief that comes with losing a child during pregnancy.
“We have so much compassion and sensitivity to those who have gone through a miscarriage at any point and in any circumstance,” she added.
Foles shared his wife’s message on his social media page.
“Tori has written a beautiful heartfelt post explaining what we have gone through this last week. We are grateful for all the love, support and prayers,” he tweeted.
