Celina Jaitly pens a heartfelt letter as she loses one of her newborn twin boys

Dussehra 2017 has been bittersweet for the actress, who is already mum to five-year-old twin boys Winston and Viraaj.

Life can be bittersweet sometimes and that’s what happened with the second-time mummy of twins Celina Jaitly. We told you that Celina is expecting twins again in September and she did give birth to two boys on 10th September. Unfortunately, one of the twins could not survive as he was suffering from a congenital heart condition.

Already mum to twin boys Winston & Viraaj with husband Peter Haag, Celina was blessed with another set of twin boys, Arthur Jaitly Haag and Shamsher Jaitly Haag, but Shamsher Jaitly Haag passed away due to a fatal; heart condition.

Celina herself made the “bittersweet” announcement on her Facebook page, announcing the bittersweet arrival of her second set of twins. She wrote:

When it rains look for rainbows, when it’s dark look for stars… My dearest friends, beloved fans and followers. On the auspicious occasion of Dusshera we would like to take this opportunity to share with you all the following bittersweet news.

The Gods above have blessed us yet again with another set of very handsome twin boys ‘Arthur Jaitly Haag’ and ‘Shamsher Jaitly Haag’ in Dubai on 10th September 2017. However, life is not always how we plan it to be. Our son ‘Shamsher Jaitly Haag’ succumbed to a serious heart condition and could not continue his journey in this world.

Heartbreaking as that is we are very fortunate that a part of him still lives with us through Arthur, whose face will always remind us that an angel who looks exactly like him looks upon us from the arms of his grandfather, my father, in the heavens above, whom we also lost two months ago.

GOOD GOD IS THAT Shoulders, arms AND TUMMY?! Oh wait even a peeking knee cap…. MY EYES ARE BURNING WITH THE SLUTINESS.!!! ?? Upon posting a recent pregnancy picture in a bathtub with a message condemning the stereotype s associated with pregnant women and their bodies in our culture, clicked by my beloved Peter Haag ( swipe left for bathtub picture) for @missmalini I was surprised to see what followed next. While I did receive a lot of love, my social media feeds on my Instagram, Twitter & FB Fan Page turned into a battle ground of trolls vs like minded followers & well wishers. Having been perceived to violate traditional expectations for behaviour & dress code during pregnancy it was not surprising to see trolling/ slut shaming on my post and honestly to me they truly are laughable and don’t affect me personally… However…… [Read further click on link ]- https://bit.ly/2wOGoHD. #celina #celinajaitly #celinajaitley #twinpregnancy #pregger #pregnancy #shaming #slutshaming #trolled #bollywood #mylife #myworld #myopinion #standupforyourself #standupforyourrights #bollywood #celinasworld #myworld

The last two months have been a tumultuous journey for us from losing my beloved father and now baby Shamsher, however there is always a light at the end of a tunnel, and that light for us is our handsome son ‘Arthur Jaitly Haag’ who seeks your blessings and love in his journey that he commences in this world. We thank you all in advance for your love and continued support.

Sending love, immense gratitude and very Happy Dussehra wishes your way.

Celina & Peter

We wish the actress recovers from this loss soon and Arthur Jaitly Haag cheers up her mommy!
