She is very active on social media. Her Instagram account has almost 28 million followers. As far as Twitter is concerned, the model’s following has amassed the number of 12 million.
Since her husband is a famous singer, the model had to appear in some of his music videos, including “Stereo”, “Love Me Now”, “Preach” and everyone’s all-time favorite “All Of Me”. She also worked with Fergie on her music video for “M.I.L.F.$”.
She took part in The Voice, Model Employee, The View, Inside Amy Schumer, The Getaway, but also Lip Sync Battle and The Simpsons.

Besides the modeling, Teigen is also a cook. She starred in a Cooking Channel special “Cookies and Cocktails” and shot an additional special titled “Chrissy Teigen is Hungry”. In 2016, Teigen published a New York Times bestseller, “Cravings: Recipes For All The Food You Want To Eat”. She has also developed a website about cooking named Cravings. Her second book, known as “Cravings 2”, was also a success.
Personal Life
Teigen is the wife of John Legend, an ultra-famous American singer and actor from Ohio. The couple first met in 2006 on the set for his music video titled “Stereo”.
The two have talked about the event, and Legend stated that he did not fall in love at first sight, nor did he know she was the one he wanted to marry right away. He noted out that he is “much more cautious than that”. According to the model herself, they had hooked up after the shoot and then texted throughout the singer’s tour. Since the first year of their relationship took place mostly over the phone, the singer talked about how his now-wife was “very good with those 140 characters”. He fell in love with her wit and humor.
Somewhere around Christmas of 2011, which the couple spent together in the Maldives, John Legend marked this trip with a proposal. Teigen described it as “very lovely and sweet” and explained that there wasn’t a grand speech.
The pair married two years later, at the location of importance to them- Lake Como, Italy. Upon this lake, the model had wished that John Legend is to be the man she spends her life with. That same day, her now-husband wished for a bite of cacao e pepe.
Legend’s hit music video for “All Of Me” was also shot at this same place. His wife, for whom he had sung the song, starred in the video.
The couple has two children Luna Simone Stephens, who was born in 2016, and Miles Theodore Stephens, who was born in 2018.
