Sims wrote, “Trigger Warning: Pregnancy Loss and Infertility. At 16 weeks, we learned that our baby’s heart had stopped beating. This is a grief no parent is ever prepared for. We are devastated, but remain hopeful to give Crew a sibling one day. Too often, these struggles happen in silence. There is still so much work and research needed to better understand and support women’s reproductive health. If you’re experiencing or have experienced pregnancy loss or infertility, please know you are not alone. 💔. Lastly, I want to recognize the doctors and nurses who must deliver this kind of heartbreaking news every day. It has to be the hardest part of their job, and I’m holding space in my heart for you too.”

One of Sims’s closest friends from golf, Tony Finau’s wife, Layna, wrote, “Love you! 🫂♥️.” They often spend a lot of time together in spas, restaurants, and out traveling when their husbands are playing majors. While they may have shared many happy memories together, it won’t come as a surprise if Tony & Layna Finau pay a visit to the Koepka household to check on Jena in the near future.
Another pro golfer, Patrick Cantlay‘s wife, Nikki, also sent some love to Jena with, “🥹❤️❤️.” Nikki, Jena, and Layna all belong to the same circle of friends and often hang out together. In fact, Jena had welcomed Nikki into their group soon after Patrick won the 2021 FedEx Cup. Since then, they have remained close friends.

Lastly, popular podcast host Sarah Nicole Landry said, “I’m so deeply sorry ❤️.” Sims’s loss is truly heartbreaking, and Landry must have been moved by the beautiful message she shared on her post despite her suffering.
