Over the weekend Chrissy Teigen and John Legend revealed the joyous news they are expecting their third child.
However, it was quite a shock for Teigen who revealed the interesting story behind finding out she was pregnant.
The 34-year-old – who is already mum to Luna, four, and two-year-old Miles – underwent surgery in June to remove her breast implants, which a fan pointed out after Teigen announced her pregnancy.
“Oh, it’s quite a story,” Teigen responded, who went onto to explain that prior to surgery she took a pregnancy test which was negative.
“A few weeks after surgery, I took a test,” she continued. “And for many years now, I’ve taken pregnancy tests almost every month, praying to see a positive one day. Just wishful thinking. I never had a positive before.”

On the morning of husband John Legend’s latest album release, Teigen explained he had gotten up at 3am for an interview, which prompted her to get up and take her routine monthly pregnancy test.
“I woke up with him and was like man, should take my monthly test to be disappointed… I was not disappointed,” she said.
With her first two children Teigen fell pregnant after undergoing IVF – a treatment she has been very open about – so, she was never sure if it would be possible for her to fall pregnant without fertility treatment.
Lo and behold, she did. “When you give up on trying, life has a way of surprising you,” she said.
Congratulations to the Legend-Teigen family who will soon become a family of five!
