Britney Spears says she suffered a miscarriage: "We have lost our miracle baby"

Pop icon Britney Spears announced Saturday that she and her fiancé, Sam Asghari, have had a miscarriage. The announcement comes just over a month after the 40-year-old singer first announced she was pregnant. 

"It is with our deepest sadness we have to announce that we have lost our miracle baby early in the pregnancy," Spears wrote on Instagram. "This a devastating time for any parent." 

"Perhaps we should have waited to announce until we were further along however we were overly excited to share the good news," she added. "Our love for each other is our strength. We will continue trying to expand our beautiful family."
