\"We lost a baby last year, just when we thought we were in a good place to tell friends + family,\" the couple wrote in an Instagram post. \"We received the heavy news that our little one wasn't going to make it, we've both been through hard things in our lives but this was a different kind of sadness.\"
The song, which features Ballas on guitar and Jean on vocals, includes lyrics that describe the heartache that came with the loss.
\"Give me some good news / something to look forward to / nothing I could do / would put the life back into you,\" Jean sings. \"It's funny in a way / how quickly it can change / a rainbow ain't far behind / I'll be alright / healing just takes time, right?\"
The couple said they wrote the song \"to heal.\"
\"We hope it brings a little peace & a safe space to grieve,\" they added.
Ballas and Jean announced in June this year that they were expecting a rainbow baby.
\"We've been making a tiny human,\" they wrote in a video post at the time.
The duo, who tied the knot Nov. 25, 2016, in Malibu, California, have shared moments of their pregnancy journey so far with their Instagram followers, including sharing sonograms from an ultrasound appointment and sweet moments of them singing to their baby.
Miscarriage -- the loss of a pregnancy -- is a common occurrence that affects countless women but remains a taboo topic for many.
ABC News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jennifer Ashton, a board-certified OB-GYN, told \"Good Morning America\" in 2021 that there are many factors that go into determining a woman's risk for having a miscarriage, but in general, singular miscarriage is incredibly common.
\"Most women can or will suffer a miscarriage a lot of times even before they even know that they're pregnant,\" Ashton said at the time.
