Chrissy Teigen has opened up about the heartbreaking baby loss of her son.

In September 2020, the cookbook author and her husband, musician John Legend, suffered the loss of their son Jack, 20 weeks into their pregnancy.

Now, three years on from her devastating experience, Chrissy has chosen to open up about her memories of it. 

In an interview on Crooked’s Hysteria podcast, the 37-year-old was asked about her experience.

“It’s hard because I have very few memories of it. I’ve always been the kind of person that has blocked out a lot of time around trauma of any kind,” she explained.

Chrissy then went on to confess that she had no idea her pregnancy was ending.

“I am totally unaware that anything bad is going to happen. Honestly, I had no idea that it was going to go the way it did. I just thought I was going to the hospital. I was bleeding a little bit, but I was bleeding a little bit for a long time. I didn’t realise that everyone around me was really nervous,” she detailed.

Chrissy, who has since given birth to 10-month-old daughter Esti and welcomed five-month-old son Wren via surrogacy, later noted that her baby loss is still “surreal” to her.

“I don’t mind speaking about it. It doesn’t make me anxious, because it still feels so unreal and so out-of-body. If anything, the things that I sit on are regrets that I have from that day, because it all happened so fast. I wish I had taken a look longer, wish I had held him longer,” she admitted, before getting emotional. 

Through tears, Chrissy recalled one act of kindness from a stranger in the days after her loss.

“I just remember going to the grocery store and having a woman just lay down flowers for me, that she had purchased already, in my cart. Those memories for me way outweigh any negativity I get from anybody,” she concluded.

Joined by some of her fellow Strictly stars, the mum-of-one was given a ‘40’ glitterball cake with a fondant figure of herself popping out of the top of it. 

"I finally got a glitterball everybody!" Janette joked, referring to the fact that she never got to lift the trophy during her time on the hit BBC show.

Janette’s fellow professional dancer Dianne then went on to gush: “Everybody at Strictly wants to wish you a massive 40th birthday.”

“We love you, and we’re not the only ones. Your family wanted to send you this,” Dianne teased, revealing an extra surprise from Janette’s husband Aljaž Škorjanec and their baby daughter, Lyra.

Janette was then presented with a pre-recorded video of her young family, as they snuggled up together in front of the camera. 

"Hello mummy, we want to wish you a happy birthday with lots of love and happiness. We're so proud of you. You're an amazing mum and beautiful wifey,” Aljaž exclaimed, cuddling his four-month-old daughter.

"40 has never looked better – sorry, I shouldn't have said the age – and we can't wait to have you home to give you a cuddle, but go and smash the show and don't forget… keep dancing!" the 33-year-old concluded.

After the show, the TV presenter later took to Instagram to reveal a new portrait of the family-of-three, following Lyra's birth in July.

“40 is looking to be the most beautiful year yet,” Janette penned in her caption, adding: “Love you both more than I can ever describe… Counting my blessings.”

Ireland’s top professional organisers, Kim, and Lyn from ‘A Sorted Affair, have put their heads together to offer some game-changing tips ahead of Christmas.

Lyn explains, "It's a hectic time of year for all of us. Here are our top tips to help you get organised ahead of and during the holiday rush. God speed…."

CHRISTMAS TOOLBOX

Kim says, ‘Make a Christmas toolbox. This should contain the things your home needs day to day over Christmas period. Batteries, wrapping paper, tape, ribbon, tiny screwdrivers, that all important Wi-Fi code for family guests, recycle bags, earplugs! Bottle of wine? You do you!’

THE DESIGNATED CHRISTMAS PRESS

Kim says, ‘In addition to the toolbox, make a designated Christmas press. Have all the Christmas essentials tucked away like the Baileys, extra cards, and THE posh napkins! Pop everything you know you will need in one easy-to-reach space. If you have a particularly busy morning ahead, prepping these the day before can be a great time-saver.’

FRIDGE/FREEZER

Lyn continues, ‘Get your fridge and freezer Christmas ready…. Check both for out-of-date items -don't forget to recycle – remove everything and give it a good clean and think about how you are putting it all back in. Try to use up items that are almost empty in the days running up to the Christmas shop to give you more space. And please don’t forget your list! It’s the worst time of year for over shopping so help reduce waste and make a to-do list.!’

HEAD START

Lyn explains, ‘Buy fresh veg, peel, prep, and freeze. Make stuffing and prep items like potatoes in advance. Pop all your stocking fillers in a box together so you're ready to grab and fill!’

CHRISTMAS CLOTHES

‘Get everything washed and sorted in advance! Plan your outfits for the week ahead. Hang outfits together with accessories like tights and jewellery. Nothing worse than the last-minute dash on Christmas Eve!’ Kim said.

FUTURE YOU

Kim says, ‘Think about all those pain points around Christmas, the moments you feel the most stress or overwhelm? Try to break them down and ask yourself what would make it easier, see what you can do days or even weeks in advance to help yourself!’

EXTRA LITTLE NUGGETS OF WISDOM

  • Wrap presents on your ironing board – Kim says, ‘Trust us it’s the only use for it.’
  • Use last year’s cards to make sustainable gift tags!
  • Keep empty pringle tubs… they make the best Christmas light storage.
  • Outfit plan, hang everything you need on one hanger for grab-and-go!
  • Take 3 minutes in any room…. Can you eliminate 3 things? Make some space and donate to charity!

Kim and Lyn are Ireland’s Top Professional Organisers and run ‘A Sorted Affair’, a team of professional organisers that help individuals, families, and businesses, declutter, and get organised. The team creates functional systems that suit its client’s wants and needs with the aim of marrying practicality with aesthetics, to deliver a relaxing clutter-free space.

Louise Thompson is celebrating her son today. 

The former Made in Chelsea star has penned a sweet message for her son Leo as he turns two years old. 

Louise shares Leo with her partner Ryan Libbey and has described the tot as ‘the coolest person she knows’ in a moving tribute to him. 

Unveiling the tribute to her 1.4M Instagram followers, Louise has posted a collection of adorable photos of Leo alongside their dogs. 

The former reality TV star captioned the post, “You are 1 in a million. Well you’re actually 1 in eight billion. Happy birthday stinky”.

“I look at you and I honestly think s*** your cool. You’re the coolest person I know. You aren’t trying to be ANYTHING other than yourself. And that is the best thing about children. I guess it’s my job as an adult (and your mother) not to tarnish that blissful innocence”.

Louise closed off by adding, “You are without a doubt my proudest project to date. And you will always be my BB, aka, blonde bombshell. I can’t claim the name but I love it”.

Thompson also shared the post to her Instagram Stories and wrote, “An ode to you stinky. Please never change. I know it’s a hard ask given that you’re only 2 and have a heck of a lot of growing up to do. I’d like you to stay small and cute and mine forever plz”.

Yesterday, Louise opened up about how she was feeling as she prepared for her baby boy’s second birthday following her traumatic labour. 

After giving birth to Leo in 2021, Louise had to stay in intensive care and was diagnosed with PTSD as well as other health issues. 

Explaining how she was doing now, the mum-of-one explained, “Tomorrow is Leo’s birthday.  2 years since everything. WOW”.

“The million dollar question. How am I feeling? Happy. As you can see i’m looking really very happy here. It’s taken 2 awfully long years to get to this place, but I feel good”.

“I was in labour 2 years ago. I'm not feeling triggered despite the date”, she added.

The Strictly star went on to confess that this has had upsetting consequences for her hopes to return to the dance floor before the end of this year.

“Absolutely gutted and heartbroken as this means the plans for me to dance in the Strictly Ballroom this year are no longer possible. This is what has kept me going the past few months,” she admitted.

Dianne Buswell has received support from her fellow Strictly Come Dancing stars, after revealing that her father has cancer.

Last month, the Australian professional dancer announced that her dad Mark was unwell and had been admitted to hospital, but she did not disclose his illness.

Dianne, who is currently partnered with EastEnders actor Bobby Brazier for this year’s Strictly series, has now confirmed that her father has started chemotherapy for cancer.

Although Dianne has yet to detail Mark’s specific diagnosis, the 34-year-old took to Instagram earlier today to share an update on her father’s health. 

The dancing star decided to post a photo that she had received from her dad, showcasing him waving from a hospital bed in Australia.

“I’m so proud of you dad, first round of chemotherapy today!” Dianne confirmed at the beginning of her caption. 

“I wish I could be there to hold your hand and support you in person but I do know that I’m making you so proud over here in my concert every week,” she continued, hinting at the fact that Mark regularly refers to her performances on Strictly as ‘concerts’.

Dianne then went on to tease: “The Australian nurses and drs are now very aware of Strictly Come Dancing as my dad won’t stop talking about it.”

Dianne, who is in a relationship with her former Strictly partner Joe Sugg, finished her sweet tribute by writing: “You can do this daddy xxx”.

Many of Dianne’s fellow Strictly pro dancers have since taken to the comments section of her post to share their own well-wishes.

“You can do this Mark!!!” penned Katya Jones.

“Sending love and Strength to papa,” penned Carlos Gu.

“Sending all my love to the whole Buswell family! Mark you got this and soon it’s going to be a distant memory! Roll on 2024 where you will be watching Dianne live in concerts. Thinking of you,” added Amy Dowden, who recently finished her own chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer.

Kylie Jenner has finally revealed where she stands with Jordyn Woods!

The pair’s friendship came to a dramatic end back in 2019, when Jordyn was spotted kissing Kylie's sister Khloé's then-boyfriend, NBA player Tristan Thompson.

Following the cheating scandal, Kylie cut off all contact with Jordyn. However, in recent months, the two women have been seen out in public together again.

Four years on from their feud, Kylie has finally detailed how she feels about Jordyn now.

In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Tristan arrived at Kylie’s house to make a long-awaited apology.

“We’ve always had such a dope relationship, and I feel like everyone got affected differently, but I think you got affected the most by the situation with losing a sister [in Jordyn],” the 32-year-old stated to Kylie.

“I know how much she meant to your life, and you guys were two peas in a pod, so the fact that I put myself and her in a situation that wasn’t right,” he admitted, adding: “It’s 100% on me, but I want to say I’m sorry, and I feel bad about it.”

In her reply to Tristan’s apology, Kylie went on to note how her relationship with Jordyn has changed since the cheating scandal.

“I appreciate that. I think I was so codependent with Jordyn that I could have never imagined my life without her,” Kylie admitted. 

“We would have probably still been living together. And I think she needed to grow without me, and I needed to grow without her, but you know, Jordyn and I are cool. We still talk and catch up, we’re good,” the 26-year-old confirmed.
