Chrissy Teigen John Legend Secretly Welcome 4th Baby with Head Full of Hair 5 Months after Daughter’s Birth

• Chrissy Teigen and John Legend secretly welcomed their fourth baby just five months after their daughter was born.
• The model previously disclosed that she had a “life-saving abortion.”

International singing sensation John Legend and his wife, model Chrissy Teigen, welcomed a baby boy via a surrogate named Alexandra on June 19. This birth marks the welcome of their fourth baby, whose namesake honors his parent’s surrogate: Wren Alexander Stephens. The baby boy was born just five months after the couple’s daughter, Esti Stephens, had joined the family.

The announcement of baby Wren’s arrival came from an Instagram post made by Teigen on Wednesday. Within the lengthy post, the model revealed how she and her husband had started pursuing surrogacy options in 2021.

The post showcased a carousel of images: a couple showed lengthy messages explaining how their fourth baby came to fruition, while others revealed the adorable-looking baby who already has a head full of hair. After searching for the perfect candidate both parents were comfortable with, the couple met Alexandra, whom Teigen is particularly fond of.

When the second embryo transfer took, the couple was over the moon to learn that Alexandra was carrying a baby boy. What made the news even more special was that it came at the same time Teigen had already been carrying baby Esti for a couple of months.

In her extended announcement post, Teigen divulged how she had always desired to have four children. Thus, when Wren arrived, she expressed how full she and her husband’s hearts and home are:

“We want to say thank you for this incredible gift you have given us, Alexandra. And we are so happy to tell the world he is here, with a name forever connected to you, Wren Alexander Stephens.”

The couple is ecstatic over the latest addition to their beautiful family, which includes the couple’s first two children, Luna and Miles Stephens. Doting dad Legend proudly showed off all four of his cute kids in an Instagram post yesterday.

In the first picture, papa Legend is seen sitting on an armchair, surrounded by all his children. While smiling for the camera, he holds both baby Wren and baby Esti, cradled in each arm, as Miles sits partially in his dad’s lap and shows off his pearly whites while his sister, Luna, holds her left leg raised in a split and shows the number four on both hands.

The relationship between Alexandra and the happy couple is embedded in love and appreciation. Teigen has labeled her as the most compassionate, incredible, and loving surrogate she could ever fathom.

Both Teigen and Legend are incredibly thankful and in awe of Alexandra’s selfless sacrifices she made on the family’s journey to have a fourth child. Of her initial encounter with Alexandra, Teigen stated that she knew Alexandra was the perfect match for them from the moment she first spoke with her.

Though it took a while for Teigen to wrap her head around the fact that what she experienced was an abortion instead of a miscarriage, the doting mom was blessed to have gotten the family she always wanted in the long run.

Alexandra and Teigen immediately felt a kinship when they discovered they had much in common. Teigen describes their connection:

“All our wishes and dreams aligned. I wanted to be her friend; I wanted our children to play; I wanted dinner together. I wanted to lay my head on her belly and be able to feel the hiccups and kicks. I wanted them to be in our lives for as long as time would allow.”

The feeling is definitely mutual for Alexandra. When Teigen posted her announcement, which dedicated a considerable part to the surrogate, Alexandra responded:

“Thank you for choosing me, for making this whole experience so wonderful, [and] for loving me and my family wholeheartedly. It was truly an honor bringing perfect Wren into the world with you right by my side.”

In September 2020, Teigen and Legend devastatingly revealed that they lost what would have been their third baby at 20 weeks. The late baby Jack could not make it due to Teigen experiencing complications during her pregnancy. Initially, the couple had announced the loss as a miscarriage.

However, while speaking at Propper Daley’s “A Day of Unreasonable Conversation” social impact agency summit, Teigen disclosed that when she and Legend lost Jack, what they experienced was actually an abortion instead of a miscarriage. The revelation came as a shock to the mom of four, who hadn’t realized what the medical procedure really was until later on.

At the summit, Teigen spoke about her experience when she realized her son would not make it. The model recalled:

“Two years ago, when I was pregnant with Jack… I had to make a lot of difficult and heartbreaking decisions. It became very clear around halfway through that he would not survive and that I wouldn’t either without any medical intervention.”

In addition to the fantastic medical care she had, the couple was lucky enough to have a strong and loving support system of friends and family who helped them through the pain of their significant loss. Fans and people who knew of the tragic news showered the model with an outpouring of love and well wishes, which Teigen greatly appreciated as well. While continuing to speak freely of her story, Teigen divulged:

“Let’s just call it what it was: It was an abortion. An abortion to save my life for a baby [with] absolutely no chance.”

Though it took a while for Teigen to wrap her head around the fact that what she experienced was an abortion instead of a miscarriage, the doting mom was blessed to have gotten the family she always wanted in the long run. She makes no secret of the fact that she is humbly blessed to have welcomed her fourth child and still acknowledges baby Jack and keeps him in her memory forever:

“And to our Jack, we know both their angel kisses are from you.”

Teigen and Legend are extremely happy about the fourth edition of their beautiful family. After going through such challenging times, devastation, and grief, they have been blessed to get the family they always wanted.
