Tony Award-winning actress Ruthie Ann Miles has revealed she is expecting a baby this spring, two years after the deaths of her daughter and unborn child in a crash in New York City.

Miles shared the news after grieving the loss of her four-year-old daughter Abigail when they were mowed down by a woman who ran a red light in 2018.

The Broadway actress, 36, also lost her unborn baby - who she had planned to call Sophia - two months later as a result of her injuries.

Miles, who is married to Jonathan Blumenstein, announced the news on Instagram, writing: 'We are expecting another child this spring!'

She continued: 'Thank you especially to the many of you who supported us in the aftermath of the crash, continually lifted us up in prayer, and doused us with Love, encouraged us, let us be & grieve these two years…and now rejoice with us in this new life.'

Miles, who won a Tony Award for her role in The King and I and starred in TV show The Americans, paid tribute to the two children she lost, saying: 'We know Abigail Joy and Sophia would have loved being big sisters & are watching their family grow.'

The crash took place when 44-year-old Dorothy Bruns, who had multiple sclerosis, suffered a seizure behind the wheel and lost control of her car.

She plowed through a red light and struck Miles, her friend Lauren Lew and their young children in the middle of a pedestrian crosswalk on 9th Street and Fifth Avenue in Park Slope, Brooklyn.

One-year-old Joshua Lew and four-year-old Abigail were both killed.

Miles was 39 weeks pregnant at the time and lost her baby as a result of her severe injuries.

One witness described to the New York Post how Lew tried to save her son after the tragedy unfolded.

'The mom was sitting there next to him screaming,' said medical student Andrew Macaluso said at the time.

'She was just kind of [saying]: "Oh, God, this can't be happening. Tell me this isn't happening. What's going on?"' Macaluso said.

'I said: "Are you the mom?" and she said: "Yeah,"' he continued.

'The child had blood on his face,' Macaluso said. 'She wipes off his face and gives him air while I'm giving him chest compression.'

Bruns, 44, was found dead in her Staten Island home by a friend on November 6 in 2018

The driver was charged with manslaughter, criminally negligent homicide, reckless endangerment, assault and reckless driving because she was not supposed to drive due to her history of seizures and heart problems.

'She took the lives of two innocent babies, injured three pedestrians, their mothers,' Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez said.

'And it was tragic, but it was solely due to her selfish decision to drive.'

Bruns was facing 15 years behind bars and was released on $75,000 bond in September after entering a tearful plea of not guilty.

The case was dismissed three weeks after she was found dead. A suicide note and prescription pills were found at the scene.
