Chrissy Teigen has defended her decision to share a slew of pictures via social media that expose her nipple through a sheer shirt.
“I think because they have been cut into disks and reattached to my body like three times and also they’ve fed babies and stuff, I really don’t think of nips (mine especially) as sexy or risqué but my apologies if you do,” Teigen, 40, wrote in the comments section of a Sunday, June 28, Instagram carousel that included the snaps.
She continued, “I hope u will survive it 🙏🙏🙏 almost sure u will. Love u so much.”
Of the five pics shared by the model and entrepreneur, four flashed her right nipple through a collared white button-up shirt while one snap showed Teigen’s arm concealing said flesh.
Fans were quick to show their support for Teigen, who shares four children with husband John Legend. (Teigen gave birth to three of the pair’s kids — daughters Luna, 9, and Esti, 3, and son Miles, 8 — while a surrogate helped the couple welcome their youngest son, Wren, 3.)
“Girl, mine have been cut off, re-built out of my belly skin, and tattooed. Nips ain’t nothing scandalous to me either!” wrote one fan in the post’s comments section, while another wrote, “Love your sassy honesty.”
Legend, 47, also showed support for his wife by dropping a heart-eyed emoji in the comments section.
Teigen is no stranger to her shared candid antics via her social media that ruffles fan feathers. In June 2024, she and Legend attracted backlash after Legend uploaded a video of his wife exfoliating her body amid brown bathwater. The post’s comments section was littered with disapproving comments.
“Okay thankful I listened to it bc she said she’s wiping ALL her body makeup off … only way this kind of water would be okay,” wrote one fan, while another wrote, “Damn she needs to let that dirty water drain before posting on social media.”
Teigen addressed the criticism hours later by writing in the comments section herself, “The water is dirty because I’m getting my body makeup off, like I said in the video my sweet angels!”
The following year, online trolls took issue with her bathwater again when Teigen shared photos of a coconut milk bath with her children. “It’s a coconut milk bath for sensitive skin but go off,” she later wrote.
Teigen’s online honesty goes beyond discussions about her body and bathing rituals. Earlier this month, she publicly mourned the loss of her father, Ron, via an Instagram video that saw her reveal that she will continue to talk to him “every night.” She has also been candid about pregnancy loss, mental health, therapy and her sobriety, among other subjects, over the years.
