Chrissy Teigen Jokingly Shames John Legend for Attending the Billboard Music Awards

Attending the Billboard Music Awards with a baby at home?! Chrissy Teigen hilariously took to Twitter to jokingly shame husband John Legend, with whom she just welcomed newborn baby boy Miles Theodore Stephens, for attending Sunday night's awards ceremony and neglecting his parental duties. Teigen, known for her very funny—and very frank—Twitter presence, may be busy tending to the couple's little one, but she still had time to call out Legend for leaving her at home alone on mom duty, and take aim at trolls in the process.

Lying on the couch with her newborn at home, Teigen posted a photo of Legend on the Billboards red carpet on her TV screen, writing, “wow didn’t u just have a baby John smh go take care of it !!!!!! disgusting.” It didn’t take long for Legend to reply, simply admitting defeat by saying, “True, true.”

While the tweet was undoubtedly a joke, it was also a subtle reminder that new dads are rarely as criticized as moms for their parenting skills, something Teigen has spoken honestly about in the past. As soon as Legend finished his Billboard performance, Teigen followed up with another tweet, reminding Legend once and for all who really makes the rules in the Teigen-Legend household:

The happy couple welcomed their second child Miles earlier this week, who is baby brother to their two-year-old daughter, Luna Simone. They revealed his name earlier today on Twitter, writing, “We are drowning in his little peeps and nuzzles. Our household feels overwhelmed with love. Thank you for all your well wishes!”
