Ruby’s pleas for privacy were met with a wave of support from fellow celebrities and friends in the comment section.
“You got this honey,” wrote model Elyse Knowles.
“So sorry for your loss, thinking of you ❤️,” wrote fellow influencer Nadia Bartel.
“Sending you love and strength beautiful x,” wrote Elle Ferguson.
Ruby hinted at troubled times last week, when she took to her Instagram Stories to tell her followers she was taking time off the platform to look after herself.
“I’m hoping to get back on track ASAP and keep connected during these odd times,” she explained, referencing Byron Bay’s current lockdown due to Covid-19.
“But for now, like many of you, I’m just trying to keep my head above water. Life isn’t fair sometimes, but it’s how you deal with it,” she wrote.
Ruby is mum to Rocket and Mars, who are four and three respectively.
The baby would have been her first with partner Shannan Dodd, who she became engaged to in June this year.
“No cute way of taking a photo with sausage fingers 🌭 But I’m off the market for good,” she shared on Instagram earlier this year, alongside an image of a square-cut diamond engagement ring.
“You have a heart of gold and are honestly adored by everyone who knows or meets you. My children love you, I love you, and I feel so blessed to spend the rest of my life with you,” the 28-year-old wrote to Shannan on his birthday last week.
Ruby often shares beautiful family snaps of Shannan with her sons, who she shares with ex Ryan Heywood.
