Teigen offered fans a glimpse into the birth of daughter Esti by sharing a C-section photo after trolls tried to claim she faked her pregnancy.

And we're back with another installment of mothers being criticized for how they experience pregnancy—the Chrissy Teigen edition.

This is hardly the first time Teigen has been criticized for her parenting or even her womanhood, including accusations about her body and her inclusion of a nanny in her family, but this might be one of the strangest.


Earlier this week, Teigen shared an adorable Instagram post which she simply captioned "Mine" featuring each of her and singer John Legend's three children.

You can see the Instagram post here:

To date, Teigen has had four pregnancies.

The first two—Miles and Luna—are growing up fast and were born via vaginal birth. Baby Jack tragically miscarried. The latest edition to the Teigen-Legend family is Baby Esti who was born via c-section.

One of Teigen's followers made a very big assumption about her latest pregnancy.

"So cute! Who was the surrogate?"

Another follower went further down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole.

Here was their theory:

"Well... the truth is Chrissy was born male. During 'her pregnancy,' they used something called a 'moon bump.' If you're not familiar with the moon bump, just Google it."
"I'm a huge fan of Chrissy, by the way."

Surprised by the interaction, Teigen saved a screenshot, which she shared to her Instagram stories:

"Obsessed with this comment."

In response to the comment about a surrogate and the moon bump, Teigen shared a picture taken during her c-section.

It's not a graphic image with the surgical curtain in place. Teigen was wearing a sanitary gown and cap and the doctors were at work.

It's clear she was in the middle of a not-fake c-section.

In jest, Teigen called this an "extremely realistic" moon bump in her Instagram stories, apparently putting some hidden method acting talents to the ultimate test.

Teigen captioned this Instagram story:

"Extremely realistic 'moon bump'."

Teigen's followers enjoyed her witty comeback and supported her and her family.






While it seems like there's no end in sight to the comments and theories about Chrissy Teigen's womanhood and motherhood, it's equally clear she'll always be ready to push back with a witty comment.

Ralph Fiennes Got Absolutely Shredded For His Next Film Role—And Fans Are Impressed

You really have to hand it to method actors: when they commit to a role, it seems like there's nothing they won't do to become the character they're portraying on the screen or stage.

Ralph Fiennes, for example, is no stranger to method acting. Back when he worked on Schindler's List as Amon Goeth, Steven Spielberg commented on his commitment to the part, both studying historical documents and published diary entries and gaining weight for the part.

Home Alone 2: Lost in New York director Chris Columbus says he wishes he could cut President Donald Trump's cameo from the film, though he acknowledges that to do so could force him out of the country.

In a recent interview with the San Francisco Chronicle, director Chris Columbus admitted that Trump’s cameo in Home Alone 2 has turned into something of a “curse"—one he now regrets. Columbus revealed he had considered cutting the scene entirely but ultimately left it in after test audiences responded well to the brief appearance.

Mike Johnson Just Tried To Blame Medicaid Cuts On Video Games—And It Didn't Go Over Well

House Speaker Mike Johnson was called out after he erroneously claimed that Medicaid cuts are happening due to "young men" who play video games "all day" instead of going to work.

Medicaid, the joint federal-state program that provides health coverage to low-income Americans, children, pregnant women, and people with disabilities, has long been in the GOP’s crosshairs. Critics within the party argue it discourages work, particularly among younger adults.
