"But we know we're the lucky ones and not everyone can have a birthing experience as peaceful as ours was. Communities around the world are still experiencing a shortage of healthcare workers and every eleven seconds a pregnant woman or newborn dies, mostly from preventable causes," the statement read.
"Since Covid-19 many more newborn lives are at risk because of the increased lack of access to water, soap, vaccines and medicines that prevent diseases. As parents to a newborn, this breaks our hearts, as we empathise with struggling parents now more than ever," the proud new parents shared.
Daisy Dove is Perry's first child. Bloom has a 9-year-old son Flynn with Miranda Kerr.
Perry revealed she was pregnant in a music video released in March for the song Never Worn White.
