  • John Legend and Chrissy Teigen are expecting their third child.

  • The little one will join older siblings Luna Simone Stephen, 4, and Miles Theodore Stephens, 2.

  • Teigen confirmed that she is pregnant with a boy.


John Legend and Chrissy Teigen's family is growing. The beloved Hollywood couple is expecting their third child. While speaking of her pregnancy on Instagram in September, Teigen accidentally let it slip that they're expecting a baby boy.

While getting candid about pregnancy complications, Teigen used telling pronouns. "It's so weird because the baby's really really healthy. He's big. He’s probably, oops! That was stupid," she said, covering her mouth in shock. "Hahahahaha might as well tell you," she captioned the post, deciding to go through with the impromptu gender reveal.

The as-yet-unnamed baby boy will be the little brother to Luna Simone, 4 and Miles Theodore, 2, the couple's other children.

The pregnancy news was first teased in Legend's latest music video for his song, "Wild," released on August 13. Teigen retweeted the video, which had a caption that teased: "Watch it now for a beautiful surprise." You have to wait for the very end to find said surprise. In the video's final moments, Teigen rubs her belly as Legend hugs her.

It's a decidedly intimate pose that seemed to indicate another baby was on the way. The couple's other children are also in the frame. Teigen implied Twitter's speculations were accurate with a sly tweet.

She later confirmed the news.

Like many families nowadays, their clan has been spending ample time together in quarantine, which Teigen documents on Instagram. Legend said his two children are "thriving."

"We've been having as much fun as we [can] with them. Of course, every parent knows that you have to be a little more creative during this time," he elaborated to ET. "I think at the age that our kids are, ages 4 and 2, their ideal situation is that we're home with them all the time, hanging out with them and playing with them, entertaining them. So they've been thriving during this pandemic."

The couple is one for cheeky pregnancy announcements. When Teigen was expecting her second son, Miles, she posted a short video to Instagram with the caption, "It's John's!" Then she confirmed with a Snapchat of her baby bump: "Very excited to not have to hide this anymore. Everyone I told first was like, 'uh yeah, we knew thanks.'"
