She’s been body shamed, blocked by Donald Trump, and hounded by online trolls, but nothing gets Christine Diane Teigen, better known as Chrissy Teigen, down. The 37-year-old American model, television personality, author and business owner has been through so many trials and tribulations yet she continues to share her undying love and light with the world.
EMBRACING MOTHERHOOD
An Instagram icon, fans can’t seem to get enough of the candid glimpses into her not-so-glamourous life and rejoice at the sight of her heart-warming feed filled with beautiful moments of motherhood – even the parts about wearing diapers after a C-section and eating her placenta. Chrissy and multi-award-winning husband, John Legend, have also been open about their struggle to conceive, sharing their personal In vitro fertilisation (IVF) experience with their followers.
“Coming to terms with not being able to carry again is still really difficult for me because I feel so healthy. I’m like, why? But then I think about it as my uterus just not cooperating with me — and it’s not a failure,” Chrissy says. “I just think of it in terms of how blessed I am already, and also there are so many ways to have a child nowadays... whether it’s surrogacy or adoption,” she continues. “When you go through IVF, it does feel like, ‘Oh, it’s not fair I have to do all ‘this’. Still, it’s a complete miracle when it works. There are so many people that still struggle, even with access to IVF.”
