Ada and her husband Chrys Xipolitas released a statement in August, confirming that their son, Harrison, was stillborn, eight months into the pregnancy.

Today, the 37-year-old shared a poem called “Never” by poet (c) K. Fugleberg on Instagram.

“I’ll never get to see your precious face, or whisper words to make you feel safe, I’ll never get to hold you tight, when you can’t sleep at night. I’ll never get to sing to you a sweet lullaby, to calm you down when you cry, I’ll never get to fall asleep with you in my arms, all bundled in a blanket to keep you warm,I’ll never get to hear you laugh and giggle, or see you little toes wiggle. There are many things I will never get to do, but the hardest is not being with you,” it read.

The Home and Away star also thanked fans for their support.. “@xippo74 and I would like to thank everyone for their love and support through a very difficult time. Thank You!” she said.

Ada and her partner Chrys married in 2007 and have a two-year-old son, Johnas.
