‘Here we go again’: Chrissy Teigen hints at surrogacy plans after revealing she would not be able to carry another child following loss of son Jack


Chrissy Teigen appeared on Instagram on Friday and dropped a hint that she may be trying surrogacy.

The mom-of-two, 36, took to the app’s Stories to share a photo of needles and capsules from a medical facility that could suggest she’s having an egg retrieval procedure.

She wrote over the image, ‘Here we go again.’

Last year the cookbook author revealed that she wouldn’t be able to have another natural pregnancy following the loss of her son Jack.

Teigen also added a GIF of a pink crying uterus to the photo, which included pens and a Nature Valley snack bar.

In September 2020 Chrissy and her husband John Legend tragically lost their third child, a baby boy they had already started calling ‘Jack,’ 20 weeks into her pregnancy. 

Chrissy shared the heartbreaking news with her Instagram followers shortly after the horrific experience, and posted photos of herself in the hospital mourning the loss of her child.

Not long afterwards, she revealed she would be unable to carry a child again.

‘I love being pregnant, so so much, and I’m sad I never will be again,’ she posted on Instagram.

Despite the loss, Chrissy expressed gratitude for her other two children, daughter Luna, five, and son Miles, three, whom were both conceived via IVF.

‘I’m so lucky for that,’ she told People last year. ‘I just think of it in terms of how blessed I am already, and also there are so many ways to have a child nowadays … whether it’s surrogacy or adoption.’

Elsewhere in the interview with the publication the model said, ‘Coming to terms with not being able to carry again is still really difficult for me because I feel so healthy. I’m like, why?

‘But then I think about it as my uterus is just not cooperating with me — and it’s not a failure.’ 

In keeping with Thai tradition, the hands-on parents planted a tree in their house to honor Jack.

‘It’s important for us in Thai tradition that we always embrace the ones we’ve lost, and they’re never, ever gone. This tree being planted inside the home, the whole reason why I wanted it was so Jack’s ashes could be in that soil and he could be with us all the time and grow through the beautiful leaves in this tree,’ she said.

‘The way Miles and Luna talk about him is so beautiful and reminds me of when I was little talking to my grandpa who was just sitting bedside next to my mom in a little urn,’ she said. 

‘It’s all beautiful, and I love that tradition carries down.’
