John Legend and Chrissy Teigen‘s busy household is filled with love, laughter and adorable children.
The couple, who have been married since 2013, frequently gush about being parents and their growing family. They have shared videos and pictures of weekends filled with karate practices, basketball lessons, cooking, painting and more fun family activities with their children, who are all under the age of 10.
While highlighting their happy moments together, Legend and Teigen have also spoken out about the dark times they’ve endured. The pair publicly shared in September 2021 that they suffered a pregnancy loss. The singer and model have continued to honor their son Jack’s memory throughout the years.
Read on to learn what Legend and Teigen have shared about their five children — Luna, Miles, Jack, Esti and Wren — below.
Luna Simone Stephens, born in 2016
In April 2016, the couple announced the birth of their first child, daughter Luna Simone Stephens. (Stephens is Legend’s actual last name.)
“We are so in love with you!” wrote Teigen in a post on Instagram at the time. “And sleepy. Very sleepy.”
As the couple’s oldest, fans have had more time to see her personality develop and shine throughout the years. One noteworthy trait is that she appears to have emerged as quite the go-getter.
In 2019, a video of Luna negotiating with Teigen for candy was shared on Instagram, and the then-3-year-old could be seen arguing a pretty fair point.
“Tell me about why you deserve the candy,” Teigen instructed Luna in the video.
“I want the candy ’cause I want it,” Luna replied matter-of-factly in the video. “And I like it.”
As Luna has aged, she has fully embraced being a big sister. In a carousel of videos and pictures shared by Teigen in December 2024, Luna dances with her youngest brother, Wren, and helps sister Esti with her art project.
Miles Theodore Stephens, born in 2018
In May 2018, the couple revealed they had welcomed a son, Miles Theodore Stephens. In a post shared on her Instagram, Teigen described how their new family of four was “drowning in his little peeps and nuzzles.”
“Our household feels overwhelmed with love,” she finished the caption.
In 2022, fans got a look into Miles’ potential for developing an interest in sports like his father when he attended his first NFL game.
In July 2024, Teigen’s followers spotted a Type-1 diabetes monitor on Miles’ bicep and inquired about it in the comments. A few days later, Teigen shared in another post her son’s diagnosis and how they found out.
“A couple weeks ago, our Miles was sick, in the hospital, with a terrible case of shigella, an intestinal infection caused by bacteria in food or water,” Teigen said, adding that doctors spotted that “something was off” with Miles’ blood tests.
“I’ve learned since then that this is how so many young children end up being diagnosed with type-1 — going to the hospital for something completely different,” she wrote. “After more testing, we learned he is in the ‘honeymoon period’ of a lifetime of T1. Last night we gave him his first shot of insulin and here we go! A different, new world for us and we are certainly learning so much on the fly.”
She said she and her husband started reading the book “Year One With Type-1 Diabetes” by author Mike Suarez to Miles.
Jack Stephens, 2021
News that Legend and Teigen lost an unborn son, Jack, staggered fans when the couple first shared their experience in September 2021.
Teigen shared slides of mournful black-and-white photographs of the couple in the hospital and also holding their baby boy.
“We are shocked, and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before,” Teigen wrote in an emotional caption for the post. “We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn’t enough.”
In the days, weeks and years that passed, Legend and Teigen continued to be transparent about their heartbreak.
“Driving home from the hospital with no baby. How can this be real,” Teigen tweeted on Sept. 30, 2021.
One year later, on the anniversary of their loss, Teigen shared another post honoring her son, memorializing her and Legend’s tearful experience of losing her son in the hospital.
Esti Maxine Stephens, born in 2023
Legend and Teigen shared that their family had blossomed with the birth of their daughter, Esti Maxine. Born on Jan. 13, Esti came almost two years after the loss of Jack.
“She’s here! Esti Maxine Stephens — the house is bustling and our family could not be happier,” Teigen captioned the post. “Daddy sheds nightly tears of joy seeing Luna and Miles so full of love, and I am learning you still need diapers with a c-section!? We are in bliss. Thank you for all the love and well wishes — we feel it all! X.”
A month later, the couple celebrated Valentine’s Day with a family picture that included all of their children wearing red (Esti included) on Instagram.
For Esti’s first birthday, Legend celebrated with a sweet Instagram tribute on Jan. 13 that showed off the toddler’s cheeky and sassy sides.
He gushed, “She’s been lighting up the house since day one.” He also included four red heart emoji.
In November 2024, Teigen posted a series of snaps and clips of her children, including an adorable photo of Esti and Luna smiling for the camera and videos of Esti proudly collecting leaves and counting to three.
“House is alivvvve! alphabets and counting, big kids being big and becoming funny little humans. it’s a lot but it’s perfect,” Teigen wrote in the caption.
Wren Alexander Stephens, born in 2023
Legend and Teigen’s family expanded again just six months after the birth of Esti.
The couple announced the June 19, 2023 birth of their son, Wren Alexander Stephens, via surrogate in a post on Instagram. Teigen sweetly revealed that she had dreamed of becoming a mom of four ever since childhood.
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted four children,” Teigen captioned her announcement on Instagram. “As a little girl, 2 glow worms and 2 cabbage patch dolls were perpetually in my arms, helping me stir in my kitchen, watching ‘Alf’ with me. We’d sleep together nightly, each getting the same amount of kisses as to not make the others jealous.”
She shared that they had begun the surrogacy process when they decided to try one more time to see if she could carry a child, which ended up being Esti.
At just 5-months-old son, Wren, was already winning titles!
People magazine announced on Nov. 7, 2023 that Wren had been named the cutest baby of 2023, in its Sexiest Man Alive issue. And with his dark curls and chubby cheeks — it’s easy to see why!
