Paris Hilton is mourning the loss of a beloved family member shortly after welcoming her first child.
The 42-year-old socialite on Monday revealed that one of her dogs, a Chihuahua named Harajuku B*tch, passed away at the age of 23.
“Today, my heart breaks as I say goodbye to my precious chihuahua, Harajuku B*tch,” Paris wrote in her post as she paid tribute to her beloved dog.
“For an incredible 23 years, she filled my life with so much love, loyalty, and unforgettable moments.
“She lived a long, beautiful and iconic life, surrounded by love until her final peaceful slumber.”
While it is unclear how many dogs the former model and singer has, she at one point allegedly owned up to ten small dogs.
In her tear-jerking message, the businesswoman, who was often pictured carrying her dogs in her handbag in the past, added:
“She was more than just a pet; she was family to me, a loyal friend who was always by my side through every twist and turn life brought my way.
“You will forever be my little angel, forever missed, and forever loved. You may be physically gone, but the imprint of your pawprints on my life will never fade.”
The sad news comes shortly after the 42-year-old heiress welcomed her first child with Carter Reum via a surrogate.
The new addition to her family was made back in January, and the proud mom has since shared photos showing her kissing her bundle of joy and cradling the baby boy, Phoenix, in her arms.
“Carter and I had already been talking about the future and then the world was shut down, so I was like, ‘What do you think about us making embryos?’” Paris said earlier this year as she opened up about her and Carter’s decision to expand their family.
“And he said, ‘Yeah, let’s do it.’ And we’ve done it seven times… I have all boys. I have 20 boys.”
Explaining why they chose to pursue surrogacy, Paris added: “I’m just so scared, I think, again, leading back to Provo of even being in a doctor’s office, just all of that. The shots, the IVs that they put in. When I was in The Simple Life, I had to be in a room when a woman was giving birth and that traumatized me as well.
“But I want a family so bad, it’s just the physical part of doing it. I’m just so scared… childbirth and death are the two things that scare me more than anything in the world.”
