Troian captioned the photo “I haven’t wanted to post in awhile, because I haven’t quite known what to say and I have been trying to figure out what is the best way to honor my community and in particular the two beautiful souls of @z_electric & @ladyluofthewolves. Instagram isn’t the place but there is also no way to move forward (in my experience on social media) without honoring them both and the loss that they have experienced. There is so much noise here. There is much of life to be celebrated and shared and this platform is a mishmash of advertisements, sales, personal photos and funny memes (and thank god for the funny memes) but I have to be honest these days I haven’t known where I fit into all of it".

Troian Bellisario went on to describe the overwhelming support and love extended to Lulu Brud and Justin Zsebe after receiving the tragic news. "Except that when tragedy struck my best friend and her husband, I saw a community, no, an army of people come to their side. We made phone calls and cooked food and held space and each other and did our best to be there for them during an unimaginable time of sadness and loss. I want to thank my community for your work and love and I want to thank Justin and Lu. Your love, your marriage and your strength have inspired me, your resilience and kindness have humbled me and I am still standing in awe next to the two of you as you continue to walk through the fire. There is still so much work to be done, but I am relieved we have the two of you to lead the way."

Troian Bellisario also had a message to her fans. She wants people to take the time to love and support their own family and friends. "To my followers, thank you for supporting and respecting their privacy during this time and I want to encourage you to tell your friends and family how much you love them and do what you can to lift one another up today and in all the days to come," she wrote.

Actress and interior designer Lulu Brud shared a photo of herself and her husband at the hospital, accompanied by a heartbreaking message.

"ON EXCLUSIVE CLUBS AND MEMBERSHIPS THAT NO ONE ASKS FOR | On Monday, August 13th, Justin and I went in for our regular 7 month check-up and through a panicked ultrasound quickly learned that our beautiful baby girl had lost her heartbeat. There really aren’t words for this kind of loss, when your life and plans go completely sideways," Lulu Brud wrote.

Lulu Brud went on to criticize the United States healthcare system and credited her friends for making sure she had an amazing medical team who were able to deliver her baby safely out of her. "The healthcare system for women in the US is atrocious. In a time of bottomless grief and pain, most healthcare institutions wouldn’t even have the conversation with us about how to safely pass our child beyond, “Have you considered just laboring?” Thanks to Justin and our incredible tribe around us for making calls to seemingly every doctor in Los Angeles, on Wednesday, I safely underwent a procedure that would take our daughter safely out of me. It wouldn’t have happened without the amazing team of women at UCLA who took up our fight and saw to it that we got the care that we needed. Our Valkyrie," she wrote.

Lulu Brud was grateful for her amazing group of friends who stepped up and made sure she and her husband were surrounded by love and support. This week has certainly taken us to new levels of grief within ourselves that we didn’t even know existed. We are heartbroken and devastated beyond belief, but we have been so held so wonderfully by the tribe around us, who within two seconds of receiving the call were barreling up our stairs and ushering us out of our home....who cooked and broke their backs cleaning our entire home and did the heartbreaking work of disassembling our nursery and resetting our space...who cocooned us in tears and silence and somehow laughter. For the people holding space and prayers for us, we feel you too," she shared.

Lulu Brud encouraged her followers to get an amazing group of friends like the ones she has. "Get yourself a tribe of friends like this. For every way that we feel unlucky, we can count two ways that we feel even luckier."

Lulu expressed her desire to get pregnant again in the future. "We will learn how to walk and heal again and hopefully find our way back to fertility as soon as we can. I’m sure there are waves that we can’t even see coming yet that will knock us off our feet all over again, but we are trying to just take it one baby step at a time."

She also thanked her baby girl for teaching her the deepest kind of love.  "Baby Girl Brud-Zsebe, for the seven months that I had the honor of having your heartbeat inside of me, you taught me the deepest levels of love and grief that I’ve ever known. For never getting to share your magical light in the world, the hole you’ve left..." she shared.
