Tragedy Strikes ’90 Day Fiancé’ Couple as Baby Girl Passes Away
A heartbreaking loss has shaken the family of Eric Rosenbrook and Leida Margaretha, who are mourning the passing of their newborn daughter. The couple, known for their appearances on the reality show 90 Day Fiancé, shared the devastating news on social media, marking a tragic chapter in their lives.
Eric, 47, took to Facebook on Thursday, July 10, to share the heartbreaking news. “It destroys me and shatters my world to announce that over the weekend tragedy has struck,” he wrote. He revealed that his beloved daughter, Alisa Eleanor Rosenbrook, passed away at 12:53 PM after five days on life support. “She slipped the surely bonds to join her grandfather Tom.”
In the wake of this loss, Eric expressed his desire to grieve privately. “I do not want well wishes or questions,” he said. “I will not answer anything, read or reply. I ask just for prayers for her.”
Leida, 36, also shared her grief, though she seemingly deleted her Instagram account before posting a heartfelt message. She reportedly wrote, “Dear God… You can take away my life but do not take away my daughter’s life…” on Saturday, July 5. “She just born… And God… If this is going to be my lesson to appreciate life since I’ve been struggling with suicidal thoughts then take away my trauma… Help. Me. Find. Peace. Help. Me. Forgive.”
This tragedy comes amid other challenges for the couple. Earlier this month, Eric was arrested for domestic battery and domestic disorderly conduct in Adams, Wisconsin. According to court documents viewed by Us Weekly, Eric was represented by a public defender during a hearing on Monday, July 7. He pleaded not guilty to both charges.
The criminal complaint, obtained by Us, listed the alleged victim as “LM.” Police later identified her as Eric’s wife. In response to the arrest, Eric admitted to Us that he and his wife got into a fight on July 4. He admitted to hitting her but insisted he did not make contact or hurt their daughter. He also confirmed that the couple is no longer together following the alleged altercation.
Eric and Leida first appeared on 90 Day Fiancé season 6, which aired in 2018. Viewers watched as Eric met his future wife on an international dating site. Despite being over 10 years younger than Eric, Leida quickly became part of his life. However, their relationship faced challenges, particularly around Eric’s focus on his children from a previous marriage. Leida reportedly filed for divorce last year, but it remains unclear if the split was finalized.
