Chrissy Teigen talks about her pregnancy loss, which happened two years ago.
Chrissy Teigen, founder of Cravings, and wife of John Legend, who is expecting their fourth child, recently opened up about her pregnancy loss at the Propper Daley’s ‘A Day of Unreasonable Conversation's summit. She said that two years ago when she was pregnant with Jack, the couple’s third child, she had to make a lot of difficult and heartbreaking decisions.
Chrissy Teigen said that about halfway through, it had been very evident that without medical help, neither she nor their child would be able to survive. The Supreme Court's decision to overturn Roe v. Wade, the legislation that protected a person's right to an abortion, happened in June, the author claimed, and it was then that she realized she had had a life-saving abortion.
During the summit, Chrissy said let’s just call it what it was, an abortion, and mentioned abortion in her life for a baby that had no chance to survive, adding that she had not been able to put all the pieces together until a few months ago. Chrissy, who is now expecting her and John Legend’s fourth child, said that she felt horrible for referring to her pregnancy loss as a miscarriage.
She explained that she fell silent, felt weird that she had not made sense of it that way, and told the world that they had had a miscarriage. Everyone believed that they had had a miscarriage. All the headlines at the time read that they had had a miscarriage. Chrissy further said that she became frustrated that she had not said what it was actually, mentioning that she felt silly that it had taken her over a year to understand that it was not a miscarriage but an abortion.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend announced in September 2020 and shared with the world about their miscarriage and how they were unable to halt the bleeding or give their baby the fluids he needed. Despite countless bags of blood transfusions, their child was not saved. Chrissy stated that she feels sorry for their son Jack since his early moments of life were difficult and they were unable to give him the home he needed to survive, but she also assured everyone that they will always love him.
Chrissy Teigen and John Legend are parents to Luna and Miles, and Miles mentioned during the conversation that it was John Legend who brought it to her attention in June that what they had was a life-saving abortion and not a miscarriage after she expressed her disappointment in the decision that was announced and spoke about how horrible it could be for the people. The couple recently announced their baby number four and she mentioned in a post that she was very scared to go public with her pregnancy after she had suffered a devastating loss, but she mentioned that joy has filled their home and hearts again and said that it has been hard for her to keep it as a secret for a long time. They conceived their fourth child via IVF, and the couple is very excited to welcome a new member into their family.
John Legend revealed to ET Canada's Keshia Chante recently that everyone has experienced ups and downs and that they have two adorable children as well as the loss of a pregnancy a few years ago, which they shared with the rest of the world. John continued and said that what ultimately happened is that they received this onslaught of love from everyone. a deluge of affection from people. When John was asked why they shared the news of their pregnancy loss with their followers, he replied that they had heard from many people who had experienced the same thing but had been reluctant to talk about it in the past because they felt ashamed and like it was something they should have kept to themselves. John believes that Chrissy's decision to share it has encouraged a lot more people to talk about the kind of loss they have suffered but were reluctant to discuss.
John Legend used some of his heartaches as inspiration for his latest album and the heartfelt new music video for his catchy track "Wonder Woman." He claimed that their mothers were a common topic of conversation, which served as the basis for the song. The idea of honoring moms, grandparents, and all other significant women in our lives, according to the singer, improves our quality of life and makes us better people. The 43-year-old claims that understanding how much women have to carry so frequently and how frequently they are underestimated, as well as witnessing Chrissy go through pregnancy, lose a pregnancy, and be a wonderful mother. To honor them, they wanted to write a song.
