Chrissy Teigen and John Legend Welcome Fourth Child Via Surrogate
Chrissy Teigen and her husband, R&B superstar John Legend, are now the proud parents of four. The 2014 SI Swimsuit Issue cover model revealed in an emotional Instagram post on Wednesday that the couple recently welcomed a baby boy, Wren Alexander Stephens, via surrogate.
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted four children... After losing Jack, I didn’t think I’d be able to carry any more babies on my own,” Teigen wrote in part of her post, referring to her pregnancy loss in September 2020.
She shared that the following year, the couple decided to reach out to a surrogacy agency. Teigen decided she wanted to try carrying a child one last time, which resulted in the couple’s third child, a daughter named Esti, born in January. She and Legend also share daughter Luna, 7, and son Miles, 5.
“Around this time, we also met the most incredible, loving, compassionate surrogate we could ever imagine, Alexandra...,” Teigen wrote. “As we crept toward the safe zone of my own pregnancy, we were overjoyed to learn Alexandra had become pregnant with a little boy. Our little boy.”
Teigen then revealed that Alexandra gave birth to Wren on June 19. In addition to her emotional story, the model and entrepreneur shared several sweet photos with Legend, Alexandra and Wren.
It didn’t take long for tons of Teigen’s 42.1 million followers on the platform to flood the comments section with well wishes.
