"With much sadness, we open our hearts to share that J and I lost our second child, who was baking in the oven," Lane wrote. "Child was very very much wanted (right now especially by J, so he took the news particularly not so well) and we are still working with coping skills over here... when life throws us curve balls such as these."
"Depression is a real concern from past abuse as well as alcoholism which he was born with. He has been able to turn any ugliness and hurt in his life into art and is the strongest person I know," she added.
The couple already shares son Wolf, who is now eight months old. Lane has often gushed about her husband, saying he is a wonderful father to their baby boy.
"I do not know anyone who has been through what he has been through and reached his level of successes. It does seem though that every time we seem to be making so much progress... sometimes it's like two steps forward, one step back."
"My husband is an Irishman who battles alcoholism and depression and drank between jobs to try to cope with the sadness of this news," she continued.
Speaking of the horrific drunk photos that were previously exposed of her husband, Lane said: "I feel that whomever took photos of my husband was slightly in the wrong and was concerned for the wrong reasons but ... it's ok. It's ok. Maybe you have/had a family to feed and need/needed money? I don't know. We forgive you."

Lane later added that her husband has denied medical help despite his condition. While he has been in rehab various times before, he wants to get well on his own, and stay close to home, this time. She added: "He is safe and with his sober living companion and bodyguard to get into a detox closer to home since he was denied hospital help twice in Ireland because of an already two month wait period."
Lane concluded by saying, "Life is life. Life is beautiful. Life is tough sometimes though so let's try not looking down at someone unless we intend on helping them up." What do you think about the actor's relapse? Let us know in the comments below.
