“Real Housewives” executive Lauren Miller has tragically died giving birth to her son, Jackson.

“It is with devastated hearts that we share that our beloved colleague, Lauren, died unexpectedly just moments after giving birth to her baby boy,” her production company, Shed Media, shared in a statement posted to Instagram.

Lauren, who served as an executive assistant to the Senior Vice Presidents of Programming & Development and co-heads of the company, died on June 9. She is survived by her husband, Kevin, their 3-year-old daughter, Emma, and their newborn son.

“Of all the things Lauren loved most, being a mother was at the top and ensuring that her children are being taken care of would mean everything to her,” the statement concluded, encouraging fans to donate to a GoFundMe created for her family in light of the tragedy.

Her husband chimed in via the comments section, writing, “Lauren is the love of my life and I was blessed by God that she chose to spend her life with me and give me two beautiful children to remember her every minute of everyday.”

He added, “Please pray for our family and thank you all for the prayers, kind words and thoughts. God bless.”

Several celebrities — many whom starred on shows backed by Miler’s production company — also responded to the heartbreaking news of her death in the comments.

“Prayers for her family & friends. This is absolutely heartbreaking,” wrote “Real Housewives of Orange County” star Tamra Judge.

“Real Housewives of Salt Lake City” star Heather Gay commented with a broken heart emoji alongside “Real Housewives of New York City” star Sai de Silva, who shared several crying-face emojis.

Jackie Christie, who stars on VH1’s “Basketball Wives,” additionally reacted to the news of Miller’s death with a red heart and two prayer hand emojis.

A link to the GoFundMe campaign to help support Lauren’s surviving family was shared on the company’s and Lauren’s co-worker’s social media profiles.

At the time of publication, the campaign has already raised over $132,000.

“This unimaginable loss is impossible to comprehend and the hole that Lauren has left in this world and in her own family, is an impossible one to ever fill. We are devastated for her beloved husband, Kevin, who must now unexpectedly take on the sole role of parenting their two children,” a message on the site reads.

“Anyone that knew Lauren was affected by her warm smile, kind heart and thoughtful, intuitive nature. She was the kind of person who could comfort you with a just a few words, because she always spoke from the heart,” the post continued.

“She was sincere, intentional and compassionate, but among her greatest qualities was the love she had for her family. It was no secret how close she was to her entire family or how excited she was when she got to start her own.”

In an update shared on Thursday, it was revealed that baby Jackson survived. He was released from the NICU and brought home by Kevin.

“He has been an angel and has eaten and slept like a champ,” the GoFundMe stated, per the father of two.

“He is so alert and attentive already at just 4 days old.”
