Chrissy Teigen announced on Wednesday (August 3) that she and husband John Legend are expecting a baby.
Teigen took to Instagram to post two mirror selfies in a cropped black tank top and sheer black underwear, showing off her baby bump.
“The past few years have been a blur of emotions to say the least, but joy has once again filled our home and hearts,” Teigen wrote in her Instagram caption. “1 billion shots later (most recently in the leg, as you can see!) we have another one on the way. Every appointment I’ve said to myself, ‘ok, if it’s healthy today, I’ll announce it,’ but then I breathe a sigh of relief to hear a heartbeat and decide I’m still too nervous. I don’t think I’ll ever walk out of a date more excited than nervous, but so far, everything is perfect and beautiful and I feel hopeful and amazing. D ‘okay, ugh, it’s been really hard to keep it up for so long!’
Teigen’s Instagram caption about “emotion blur” likely refers to the pregnancy loss she suffered in September 2020, when she lost her son Jack at 20 weeks pregnant, as well as to the torrent of bad press she received after being accused of cyberbullying Courtney Stodden and others in tweets years ago. Also, just over a year ago, Teigen went public with her decision to stop drinking alcohol. In a post last month, Teigen wrote, “I drank to deal with crazy anxiety that later went away when I stopped drinking! sigh. I feel great anyway.”

Legend and Teigen are parents to Luna, 5, and Miles, 3.
In February, she told her followers she was undergoing IVF treatment to get pregnant again, but asked people to stop asking her if she was pregnant. “Honestly, I don’t mind the shots…they make me feel like a doctor/chemist…but the swelling is a bi- so I humbly ask you to stop asking if I’m pregnant because even though I know that she says with excitement, good intentions, it’s a little hard to hear because I’m the opposite of pregnant!”
