Chrissy Teigen Says She’s Open To Adoption But Would Love To Get Pregnant Again
Chrissy Teigen has spoken with Marie Claire about whether or not she wants more kids with John Legend. The Sports Illustrated swimsuit model revealed that she is open to adopting her next child after suffering postpartum depression when she gave birth to baby Luna.
Teigen is gracing the cover of the monthly magazine’s July 2017 issue. In her tell-all interview with the magazine, the 31-year-old talked about several things, including her future plan as a mother. According to Teigen, she wishes to have more kids, and she’s considering adopting or fostering children.
But Teigen also admitted that she would love to get pregnant again if possible. “I loved being pregnant. Maybe I should be scared [of having postpartum depression again], but I don’t know. It couldn’t be any worse than it was — could it?” she told the magazine.

Teigen previously poured her heart out in an essay for Glamour magazine about how she battled postpartum depression after giving birth to her first baby. “I had everything I needed to be happy. And yet, for much of the last year, I felt unhappy,” the new mom, who used IVF to conceive, wrote. “What basically everyone around me — but me — knew up until December [2016] was this: I have postpartum depression.”
“After I had Luna, our home was under construction, so we lived in a rental home, then a hotel, and I blamed whatever stress or detachment or sadness I was feeling at that time on the fact that there were so many odd circumstances,” the “Cravings” author said.
She then added that things got worse when she went back to work on “Lip Sync Battle.” Although everyone on the set was supportive and understanding of her, she said that she had a hard time figuring out “why I was so unhappy.”
In her essay, Teigen concluded that she blamed her depression on being tired or on the possibility that she has already grown out of her role on the show. “Maybe I’m just not a goofy person anymore. Maybe I’m just supposed to be a mom,” she said at the time.
Meanwhile, Teigen also candidly tackled other things in her recent interview like the one thing she won’t ever do and why she’s never doing the doggy style with Legend ever again. Read Teigen’s full interview when the new “Marie Claire” issue hits newsstands on June 20.
