In the household of John Legend and Chrissy Teigen, there’s not just great music, delicious food (Chrissy has already written two cookbooks), and funny tweets, but also their adorable children: Luna Simone, Miles Theodore, Esti Maxine, and baby Wren Alexander sweeten the everyday life of the Oscar-winning musician and his model wife. GALA takes a look at their vibrant family life.
The Beginnings
In 2006, sparks flew between John Legend and Chrissy Teigen when they met on the set of a music video for the musician. But it wasn’t all rosy at the beginning of their relationship. In Jay Shetty’s podcast, John revealed that he wasn’t a good partner at the start of their relationship: “Even though I was very much in love with her and really excited to be with her, I was still selfish.
I was in my mid-20s and not ready to be the committed partner that I am now.” Over time, he realized he needed to change. And that maturity paid off, as their infatuation turned into lasting love.
Wedding and Family Life
On September 14, 2013, their glamorous wedding took place in Italy at Lake Como. Over the years, the couple has gone through many highs and lows together: “We’ve been through enough together that has really made us stronger. These trials have brought us closer,” Legend said in the podcast with Shetty. Chrissy Teigen also openly talks about her therapy and addiction recovery. Self-reflection seems to be very important to the couple.
After nearly 10 years of marriage, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen can celebrate their four children. For Teigen, this fulfills a big dream, as in 2020 she lost their son Jack in the 20th week of pregnancy. The model and the musician went public together to share their loss.
All the more beautiful that three years later, the couple can give insights into their fulfilling family life. With their four children Luna, Miles, Esti, Wren, and several pets, life is never boring. But with a lot of humor and support, John Legend and Chrissy Teigen handle it all with ease.
