"?? he loved it ????," Lauren added in the comments.
The couple, who wed in November 2018, have been open in the past about the challenges they faced amid their journey to becoming parents.
Back in 2019, Lauren said on Good Morning America's Strahan Sara & Keke that she had previously suffered a miscarriage.
Lauren recalled tracking her ovulation cycles, sharing that "it worked out perfectly" that she was ovulating at the same time Mike was released from the Otisville Federal Correctional Institution in Otisville, New York, in September of that year after serving eight months for tax fraud.
"The night he came home we actually conceived," she said. "And then at about six-and-a-half, seven weeks I miscarried." She also called the ordeal "heart-wrenching."
When asked why she came forward with her story of losing her child, Lauren said, "I didn't want to hold this in. I wanted to share it for other people going through it and just be honest so I can kind of heal through the process."
