Kevin Miller Celebrates Baby Jackson’s Homecoming After Mom’s Tragic Passing
Professional here, cutting to the chase with the latest on Lauren Miller’s family in the wake of heartbreaking loss. Days after Lauren Miller—veteran executive producer on Real Housewives of New York City and Salt Lake City—died suddenly on June 9 moments after delivering her son Jackson, her husband Kevin Miller has shared a joyful developmental milestone that fans and friends are celebrating.
Lauren’s sudden passing left colleagues at Shed Media and Bravo’s reality community reeling, but a June 12 GoFundMe update from her close friend and coworker Sherri Pender provided a welcome piece of good news: baby Jackson has been discharged from the neonatal intensive care unit and is now home with his proud dad and big sister Emma, who turned three earlier this year. “He has been an angel and has eaten and slept like a champ,” Pender wrote, noting that at just four days old, Jackson is “so alert and attentive already.” That update followed the company-wide Instagram tribute from Shed Media, which described Lauren as a beloved colleague whose greatest joy was motherhood.
Kevin Miller, sharing his gratitude on social media, honored Lauren’s memory with touching words that underscore the depth of their bond. “Lauren is the love of my life and I was blessed by God that she chose to spend her life with me and give me two beautiful children to remember her every minute of every day,” he wrote, thanking supporters for their prayers and kindness. His message prompted an outpouring of sympathy from reality television peers—Heather Gay of Real Housewives of Salt Lake City simply posted a broken-heart emoji, while Tamra Judge of Real Housewives of Orange County offered “Prayers for her family and friends. This is absolutely heartbreaking.”
Beyond the immediate family circle, Lauren’s legacy has resonated across the industry. In her GoFundMe post, Pender highlighted Lauren’s “warm smile, kind heart and thoughtful, intuitive nature,” qualities that endeared her to everyone she met. The page, initially set up to assist with funeral expenses and ongoing care for Emma and Jackson, has drawn contributions from colleagues and fans alike, reflecting the genuine affection Lauren inspired throughout her life.
As baby Jackson settles in at home—nurtured by his dad’s loving care and watched over by his doting big sister—Kevin Miller and supporters continue to honor Lauren’s memory by ensuring her children have every resource and emotional support they need. The journey ahead will no doubt be shaped by both grief and gratitude, as the Miller family navigates life without Lauren’s guiding presence.
And there you have it. Make of that what you will.
