Chrissy Teigen has revealed that her late son Jack’s passing in September 2020 was the result of a life-saving abortion, not a miscarriage as she originally stated.
The wife of John Legend, 36, explained that she made the ‘difficult decision’ to terminate the pregnancy at 20 weeks after coming to terms with the fact that she nor Jack would likely survive.
‘Let’s just call it what it was: It was an abortion. An abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance. And to be honest, I never, ever put that together until, actually, a few months ago,’ confessed Chrissy, according to THR.
The couple had previously said that Jack died as a result of complications caused by a partial placental abruption, which is when the placenta detaches from the womb depriving the baby of oxygen and causing heavy bleeding in the mother.

Chrissy is currently pregnant with her and John’s fourth child. They share daughter Luna Simone, six, and son Miles Theodore, four.
She spoke candidly about coming to terms with her 2020 abortion while appearing at Propper Daley’s ‘A Day of Unreasonable Conversation’ summit on Thursday in Beverly Hills.
