It turns out the recently disgraced model has suffered a devastating loss…
Just months after being canceled due to a cyberbullying scandal.
Now, although Chrissy Teigen is a very much-loved figure…
The former model has proven to have been rather controversial in the past.
Some of her eye-opening tweets have landed her in some serious hot water on several occasions…
And Chrissy has been slammed many times in the past for her “tone-deaf” tweets.
Especially during difficult times like a global pandemic.
In the middle of last year’s lockdown, Chrissy took to Twitter to explain how her mom treats her $200 Apple AirPods like they’re disposable.
Her supposed joke really didn’t go down well with her fans; many of whom were struggling financially thanks to the pandemic.
And in the last decade, Chrissy has also been called out on numerous occasions for making fun of and being cruel about other famous figures…
Such as suggesting Lady Gaga isn’t a woman, shaming Mariah Carey when she was pregnant, and ridiculing transgender contestants on America’s Next Top Model… just to name a few.
She has also been accused of being a bully on numerous occasions…
And some of her past tweets certainly back up these accusations.
Before these accusations came to the surface, Chrissy was aslo known for being a social media queen.
But despite being well-loved across social media, she receives a lot of hate from trolls.
And a few months ago, things became too much…
As Chrissy finally quit Twitter.
Now, of course, Chrissy is part of one of the internet’s favorite families.
She’s married to John Legend and shares 2 children with him – Luna, and Miles.
And in the last decade, Chrissy has gained a huge following from fellow parents worldwide…
And she is very much loved for always keeping things real when it comes to raising 2 young kids.
She’s clearly such an amazing mom…
Who has a wicked sense of humor!
But last year in September…
Chrissy an Johnd opened up about a tragic loss in their family.
Chrissy took to social media to announce they had lost their third unborn child…
Who they had already decided to name Jack.
In the emotional post that contained photos of the moment they said goodbye to baby Jack, the heartbroken mom apologized to her son…
“To our Jack – I’m so sorry that the first few moments of your life were met with so many complications, that we couldn’t give you the home you needed to survive. We will always love you. Thank you to everyone who has been sending us positive energy, thoughts, and prayers. We feel all of your love and truly appreciate you.”
And, just a few weeks after the tragic loss…
Chrissy returned to social media to share an essay she wrote for Medium about her harrowing experience.
In the deeply personal piece simply titled “Hi,” the star started off by explaining that she didn’t know when she would be ready to address her son’s death.
when I would be ready to write this. Part of me thought it would be early on, when I was still really feeling the pain of what happened. I thought I would sit in the corner of my bedroom with the lights dimmed, just rolling off my thoughts. I’d have a glass of red wine, cozy up with a blanket, and finally get the chance to address ‘what happened’.”
She took some time to thank fans for their support…
“I didn’t really know how I would start this, no matter the room or state I was in, but it feels right to begin with a thank you. For weeks, our floors have been covered in flowers of kindness. “Notes have flooded in and have each been read with our own teary eyes. Social media messages from strangers have consumed my days, most starting with, ‘you probably won’t read this, but…’. I can assure you, I did.”
Chrissy then moved onto talking about the day she lost Jack.
“One of the standout moments from that morning (or evening? I have no idea) was me going through the halls of labor and delivery, and John saying “What, is there a f**king party going on here??” Here we were, just wheeled down to a new floor, me covered in a thin blanket to hide, knowing I was about to fully deliver what was supposed to be the 5th member of our beautiful family, a son, only to say goodbye moments later. “People cheered and laughed right outside our door, understandably for a new life born and celebrated. You kind of wonder how anyone is thinking about anyone but you.”
Chrissy then described the heartwrenching moment she was told it was time to say goodbye.
“After a couple nights at the hospital, my doctor told me exactly what I knew was coming — it was time to say goodbye.
“I cried a little at first, then went into full-blown convulsions of snot and tears, my breath not able to catch up with my own incredibly deep sadness. Even as I write this now, I can feel the pain all over again. Oxygen was placed over my nose and mouth, and that was the first picture you saw. Utter and complete sadness.”
“I’m not sure I’ll ever forget the experience.”
“I had always laughed about how much I loved epidurals…not so much this one. I laid there for hours, waiting to be told it was time to push. I obviously never had to dilate much, he was still a tiny little guy. “I had been laying on my side, switching sides every hour or so, whenever the nurse told me to. I remember laying on my right side, looking opposite of John, when I was told to make my switch. I opened my legs and started to turn to face John and just like that, he was on his way out. The doctors yelled for a bit and…I don’t know what to say, even now. He was out.”
It’s been months since the family’s tragic loss…
And slowly but surely, they have been learning to live with their grief and build their lives back together.
It’s clear to see that Chrissy is starting to get back to her old, bubbly self…
She’s been keeping herself very busy… including accompanying John as he sang at President Biden’s inauguration ceremony in Washington D.C.
Not to mention her on-going social media presence which has truly cemented her as an internet favorite.
She’s not one for sugar coating things…
And so, keeps her social media very real.
And of course, she’s not afraid to hit back at trolls.
But in March, it seemed like enough was enough…
As the model quit Twitter and it’s safe to say, it got a lot of people talking.
