"As if there's some protocol during soul-scouring calamity that, if not observed, emboldens people who do not know her or her family to say how she should be handling the unimaginable."The 'Pearl Harbor' actor wanted to show her support to Teigen, Legend and other women and couples who lost pregnancies."Sending so much love to the Legend family, but also so much to the women and couples who have kept it quiet and suffered. I know there are so many."The actor said she supported the decision to release the photograph."Thank you @chrissyteigen for making sure it is abundantly clear how devastating this is, and how life changing it can be without support," she said. Let's let the grieving decide what's right for them."Beckinsale then told her followers they should either "send support or keep quiet."She has a 21-year-old daughter, Lily Sheen, with her ex-husband, Michael Sheen.Her brave admission comes two days after Teigen and her husband, John Legend revealed they lost their son who they named Jack.The supermodel and cookbook author had severe blood loss after weeks of strict bed rest.
