Chrissy Teigen – Slams Surrogate Rumors About Third Baby
However, the cookbook author struggled after Esti’s birth with rumors that she secretly opted for a surrogate. And to challenge the gossip, Chrissy posted pics that showed her body after her cesarean section. “Extremely realistic ‘moon bump,'” commented Teigen about the pics.
And Chrissy also discussed her cesarean section in interviews. “I was kind of excited,” she admitted about the surgery. Teigen previously gave birth to her son Miles Theodore, 4, and daughter Luna Simone, 7. And in comparison, she shared, “I really love surgery.”
But the always candid cookbook author also added, “I like that I’ve seen both experiences. The incision is a lot,” admitted Chrissy. “And you never know how your stomach’s going to come together. I think your organs are on the table for a second,” noted Teigen. “But that, to me, is so cool. I was taking pictures above the seat. I have the craziest pictures of the cord and everything.”
When John’s and Chrissy’s third baby arrived, she shared her joy over her baby girl on Instagram. “She’s here! Esti Maxine Stephens – the house is bustling,” gushed Teigen. “And our family could not be happier. Daddy sheds nightly tears of joy seeing Luna and Miles so full of love,” added Chrissy about Legend. “And I am learning you still need diapers with a c section!? We are in bliss. Thank you for all the love and well wishes – we feel it all!”
