Chrissy Teigen Talks Mom Shaming
The model and cookbook author welcomed her first child, Luna, last month.
The “Cravings” author also revealed that Grammy-winning Legend is just as good a dad as he is a husband, pitching in on diaper changes and bath-time songs.
“I don’t even want to say because everyone already thinks John is so perfect, so I love to kind of twist it and make sure people know that nobody is perfect, but he’s been really great,” Teigen said.
Speaking of herself, Teigen called being a mom “really fun” but she was also eager to get back into her passions, including cooking.
“I kind of bounced right back into the stream of work and I’m cooking again,” said Teigen, who took to social media to announce Luna’s birth last month.
During her pregnancy, Teigen was open both about her struggle to conceive and her and Legend’s decision to have a baby girl through In vitro fertilization. On her daytime talk show \"FABLife,\" the model spoke about her struggle to get pregnant during an emotional discussion.
\"I will say, honestly, John and I were having trouble,\" Teigen confessed. \"We would have kids five, six years ago if it'd happened. But, my gosh, it's been a process.”
