'Siesta Key' stars Madisson Hausburg and Ish Soto lose son to stillborn delivery

Madisson Hausburg and Ish Soto have shared devastating news.

The Siesta Key stars announced on their individual Instagram accounts that their son, Elliot Angel Soto, was delivered as a stillborn on Dec. 12:

"I delivered him stillborn at 37 weeks," Hausburg, 27, wrote in her caption. "Instead of leaving the hospital with our beautiful baby boy, I was wheeled out with just this memory box. It’s true what they say about there being no greater love than a mother’s love. And there is no deeper pain than losing a child. Everyday I wake up to the agonizing reality that I will never again get to hold him or kiss him in this lifetime. I am completely and utterly heartbroken. I love you, I miss you, my perfect little Elliot."

Soto, 47, added: "This was the hardest thing I’ve ever had to go through. The pain of losing a child and the agony of watching my beautiful wife suffer, will haunt me for the rest of my days. I take comfort in knowing that one day we will be united and until then I will carry you in my heart. I love you, baby Eli, my little champion."

Hausburg and Soto married in October. The couple first met through filming MTV reality series Siesta Key, on which she starred and he served as a producer. They announced their engagement in August 2020, and Hausburg revealed her pregnancy this August.
