Renowned model Chrissy Teigen, has joyfully shared that she and her husband, singer John Legend, have welcomed their fourth child into their lives.

Their son, Wren Alexander Stephens, was born via surrogate, and the couple expressed their heartfelt gratitude to the surrogate for this precious and incredible gift.

The arrival of Wren brings immense happiness and fulfilment to their hearts and home, particularly after the devastating loss of their baby Jack during pregnancy in 2020, a painful experience that Chrissy had candidly written about.

Despite the challenges they encountered, the couple now embraces this new chapter with profound love and hope.

In her most recent post, she said she had "always wanted four children".

"After losing Jack, I didn't think I'd be able to carry any more babies on my own," she wrote.

"In 2021, we reached out to a surrogacy agency, with our first correspondence inquiring about perhaps having 2 tandem surrogates, to each bring us a healthy baby boy or girl."

During their journey, Chrissy Teigen revealed that she had a conversation with John Legend where she expressed her desire to try once more to carry a baby. Subsequently, they decided to embark on the IVF process again, which resulted in the birth of their daughter, Esti, in January 2023.

At that stage, Chrissy and John were in the early phases of exploring surrogacy and had the privilege of meeting Alexandra, whom Chrissy affectionately described as an exceptional and incredibly loving surrogate. Alexandra became an integral part of their lives during this process.

In a touching tribute to their surrogate, the couple bestowed their son with the middle name Alexander, symbolizing the deep appreciation and gratitude they hold towards her for her selflessness and compassion.

"And we are so happy to tell the world he is here, with a name forever connected to you," she wrote.

Legend posted a picture of him and their children on Instagram, saying: "Wren Alexander Stephens, our new love."
