Just a few weeks after "Teen Mom 2" cast member and mother of two, Leah Messer, announced that she is pregnant again, fiancé Jeremy Calvert confirmed that his wife-to-be suffered a miscarriage.

"It's a devastating experience, but all I can do is support Leah and take things day by day," Calvert told OK! Magazine on Wednesday. "It's hard, but we will get through it."

According to the report in OK!, 19-year-old Messer was experiencing cramps two weeks ago when the pain worsened.

"She was having extreme pain to the point where she couldn't get out of bed," a source told OK! "Leah knew something was happening. She was bleeding and had body aches."

Messer lost the baby, which would have been her third child, on Saturday afternoon while at her mother's home. According to Calvert, she is "really upset."

"There have been times during the day when she will just break down and cry," the source said.

News of the miscarriage sparked an outpouring of support from fans on Twitter.

"I'm inspired by @TM2LeahDawn . She has been thru so much but still keeps her head high for her children. #realwoman," wrote Twitter users Mandaboo09.

Messer first announced her pregnancy in early January, sparking rumors on Twitter that she was carrying twins after an insider came forward with the information.

"Thank you @intouchweekly for telling me I am having twins again, love bad reporting and fake stories, it does sound like a Soap Show! Ha!" she tweeted to dispel rumors.

Messer and Calvert, who announced their engagement after dating since August, will still get married despite the miscarriage.

E! News reported that Calvert asked for her hand in marriage on Christmas Day with a 1.5 carat princess-cut diamond ring.

The couple reportedly were in talks to get married for months.

"We have a really good connection," she told US Weekly in December. "It's different from Corey and my relationship, because we were kinda like forcing it... With Jeremy, you know when you're supposed to be with somebody and you're not."

Messer was previously married to Corey Simms for six months, whom she has two daughters with, Aleeah and Aliannah. However, the couple divorced last April.
