The family of Mexican-American artist Demi Lovato is in mourning following the death of her newborn niece. The baby was the daughter of Demi's younger sister, Madison De La Garza, the actress who starred alongside Eva Longoria in 'Desperate Housewives.'
Madison announced her pregnancy on September 5 and shared the heartbreaking news today, October 26. According to Madison, her daughter, Xiomara, passed away a month ago after an emergency C-section.
"On the evening of September 27th, after an emergency c-section, Ryan and I held our little one for the first and last time," the 22-year-old wrote in her post. "Thank you, Xiomara, for making us parents to the most perfect angel in heaven. Mommy and Daddy love you sweet girl."
Demi and the rest of the family had expressed great excitement for the baby's arrival and have publicly shared in Madison and her boyfriend Ryan Mitchell's grief. The couple took several weeks to privately mourn before announcing Xiomara's passing to the world.

Later, in her Instagram stories, Demi shared an emotional message, saying she had been able to meet the baby before her passing: "RIP to my beautiful, perfect niece Xiomara. I'm grateful I got to hold you. I'll forever be your auntie." She also linked to her sister's account, captioning it, "I love you so much."
Dallas Lovato, the third sister, posted a poem for the baby:
"Baby girl Xiomara, I miss you every day.
I'll take good care of your mom, so you can fly away.
Watch over us and guide us and give us little signs.
One day, we'll come and see you, it just might take some time.
Not a single day will pass without you in our hearts.
I wish we got more time together before you had to depart.
So have fun in your new world, the one we cannot see.
Because every breath I take, I'll be taking one for z ♥️."
