Who doesn’t loveChrissy Teigen?
Additionally, her marriage toEGOT-winningJohn Legend is the stuff that #RelationshipGoals are made of.

At least, it certainly seems that way!
Wonder what Teigen was like before all the fame?
Read on to see for yourself the stunning transformation of Chrissy Teigen.

Her American-born father of Norwegian decent met Chrissy’s mother in Korat, Thailand, according toVanity Fair.
After meeting, Ron brought Chrissy’s mother and older half-sister back to his trailer in the States.
Chrissy was laterbornin Delta, Utah on Nov. 30, 1985.

Talk about salt of the earth!
“Truly no idea how I made this team,” she revealed in anInstagrampost.
She added that she still remembers her cheers to this day, despite not being a cheer pro.

“I was an anxious, nervous kid,” she recalled in an interview withGlamour UK.
That honestly sounds like it could be anyone’s story, given how much that struggle is real.
Tragedy struck again three months later, when Vilailuck’s mother was killed in a freak train accident.

After that, Vilailuck sank into a deep depression and refused to leave her room for several months.
To that end, she mailed noodles to her daughters in an effort to show them love.
When they arrived, Teigen shaved her eyebrows, dyed her hair black, and got two jobs.

Thus, Teigen’s modeling career was born.
Teigen landed a campaign for Billabong, and she eventually found herselfon the cover of theSports Illustrated’sSwimsuit Issue.
However, as Teigen tells it, her modeling days were consumed by scrutiny.

“That was my entire career, doing weigh-ins,” she explained in a chat withGlamour UK.
She added that she was thrown off a job three times for her size, which is insane!
The rest is history.

As Legend tells it, they started dating, and things got serious pretty quickly.
“She just entertained the hell out of me, texting me,” he toldVanity Fair.
“What people respond to in her tweets today was the same energy in those texts.”

And since then, the couple have proven time and time again to be #RelationshipGoals.
To that end, it’s no wonder that Teigen has millions of followers onInstagramandTwitter.
“She’s so open and honest with her audience,” Kardashian continued.

“She also has the best sense of humor.”
However, according to Teigen, that wasn’t exactly a magic bullet, at least not initially.
“You realize that a lot of it is luck, and you might’t blame things on yourself.”

“It’s a complete miracle when it works,” Teigen continued.
“There are so many people that still struggle, even with access to IVF.”
“It was a sad existence,” she confessed toGlamour UK.

“There were no highs.
It was a flatline of life for a few months.”
Truly it can happen to anyone, and Teigen is proof.

“It brings you back down to earth.”
We are 100 percent here for this!
“They didn’t question it,” she shared in an interview withMarie Claire.

“The rooms on every show I work on will always look like this.
I want to see women in power positions that men have held captive for so long.”
But since she had children, naturally, that number has changed.

Fortunately, Teigen has come to accept her new normal.
“I don’t take the aesthetics so seriously now,” she continued.
“I didn’t start therapy until quarantine,” she revealed toMarie Claire.
“A few weeks after surgery, I took a test,” she shared in anothertweet.
This time she did, lo and behold, Teigen had become pregnant naturally.
This was after Teigen had been on bedrest, as she’d been diagnosed with partial placenta abruption.
We’re so sorry for your loss, Chrissy.
And despite everything, Teigen says she still feels lucky for all that she has.
