Chrissy Teigen shared she suffered a pregnancy loss. In a candid and emotional post, Teigen explained, “We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before. We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn’t enough.”

Teigen announced she was expecting baby number 3 with husband John Legend earlier in August. But weeks after, she had to be hospitalized after experiencing complications.
“We never decide on our babies’ names until the last possible moment after they’re born, just before we leave the hospital. But we, for some reason, had started to call this little guy in my belly Jack. So he will always be Jack to us.”
Teigen has been real about her struggles with fertility in the past and has helped illuminate this sensitive topic, helping shed the taboo for other women experiencing the same challenges in silence.
“We are so grateful for the life we have, for our wonderful babies Luna and Miles, for all the amazing things we’ve been able to experience. But everyday can’t be full of sunshine,” Teigen said. She thanked her fans for the outpouring of support, and for their “positive energy, thoughts and prayers”. “We feel all of your love and truly appreciate you.”
