Jade Roper Says AI Christmas Photo Included Late Son Without Prompting

Jade Roper shared that an AI-generated Christmas portrait featuring her family included an unexpected addition. 

Alongside Jade, her husband Tanner Tolbert, and their three children — sons Reed, 5, and Brooks, 6, and daughter Emerson, 8 — another boy appeared in the picture, according to her Instagram Stories posts shared on Saturday, December 27.

The former reality star believes the boy is Beau, the son the couple lost in a miscarriage in 2023. “Did the Norman Rockwell holiday trend and an extra boy was in our image,” Jade wrote, “and it touched my heart, because of course Beau would want to make the family photo. 🥰.”

Jade then asked the AI chatbot to remove the extra child so the portrait would reflect their family of five, as in the original reference image. The updated image, however, didn’t feel quite right. “But now it just sort of feels empty,” she shared alongside the revised photo.
