INSTAGRAM influencer Jackie Miller James is known for her bubbly personality and fun beauty tips online.
Loyal followers were elated to hear that the new mom was awake and doing well after suffering an aneurysm just a week before her due date.
Jackie Miller James is a 35 year old social media beauty influencer.
She has over 83k followers on Instagram where she often shares her daily routines, fashion favorites, skincare hacks, and more recently, her pregnancy journey.
Before becoming a full-time influencer, Miller James reportedly worked for a plastic surgeon in Beverly Hills for six years.
Following her stint in the office, she spent five years living in New York as a backup dancer for various artists.
Miller James was nine months pregnant and one week from her due date, when she suffered an aneurysm, leading to severe brain bleeding and injury.
According to her GoFundMe: "Jackie was found immediately by her husband, Austin, and was rushed to the emergency room and into an operation where they performed an emergency C-section and brain surgery simultaneously."
On Sunday, July 2, 2023, Miller James was finally awake and reunited with her baby after being placed in a medically induced coma for more than a month.
“We are beyond thrilled to share that your loving prayers for Jackie have been working!” her family said in a statement via Instagram.
“Jackie is awake and was recently transferred to one of the best neurological rehabilitation hospitals in the country. The doctors have been pleased upon her latest tests, numbers, and evaluations, noting that Jackie is performing above expectations at this stage of her recovery and is progressing more with every passing day.”
The family added that “while Jackie is making wonderful strides, she has an incredibly long road to recovery ahead of her.”
“Jackie & Austin’s baby girl is a constant source of light for the entire family and continues to grow into a happy, healthy, and animated little angel,” the family’s update read.
“Jackie has also recently been reunited with her baby, and spends a great deal of each day with her entire family while in the hospital.”
Miller James married her husband, Austin, back in April 2022.
According to an Instagram post, she met her hubby on a dating app at the age of 32, was engaged by the age of 34, and married a year later.
"I always felt so behind everyone else," Miller James captioned the video.
"I felt like I was watching everyone’s life progress as my life stayed stagnant. I would get annoyed when people would tell me to 'trust my own journey and timeline'.
"But now looking back, it’s so crazy how much energy I spent comparing myself to others when the best chapters of my life were just around the corner. God was just waiting for me to be ready. Trust the process and know that your 30’s are where it’s at!"
On January 2, 2023, Miller James and her husband took to social media to announce they were expecting their first child together.
By March, she shared with followers that the couple was going to be welcoming a baby girl, writing: "Can’t wait to meet this angel in May."
