“Chrissy Teigen shared a video of the “cutest, most beautiful” way her daughter, Luna, is honoring her late baby brother. The model and cookbook author is continuing to be open about her grief after she experienced pregnancy loss at 20 weeks earlier this fall of her third child with her husband, John Legend, a son they had planned to name Jack. In the video posted to Instagram on Tuesday, Teigen says she just received a box of Jack’s ashes, adorned with “blessed holy Thai string” to honor her heritage. She then reveals that her 4-year-old daughter had placed a stuffed animal and a treat next to the late baby’s ashes to keep him company. “This is the cutest, most beautiful thing I have ever seen,” Teigen says in the clip. “Luna put a little therapy bear around him. The best part is I came down and she gave him a piece of her favorite snack, a tiny piece of Pirate’s Booty. I can’t. Ek weet nie, she’s amazing.” View this post on Instagram im just thinking a lot about jack today. our house is very open about life, death, grief, everything really. we try to explain things well and answer every question imaginable in a beautiful, spiritual but literal way. I know this is a weird post but I just wanted to share these to always remember my incredibly empathetic little mini. life is infinitely better with her in it. I miss u, jack. we miss you a lot. A post shared by chrissy teigen (@chrissyteigen) on Nov 9, 2020 by 1:14pm PST In a second clip, Luna is seen talking to Jack and the stuffed bear, sê, “Hi guys! ‘Hi, this is baby Jack, and I’m Teddy.’ I’m Luna. How are you doing today?” Teigen wrote in the caption that while her post might appear “weird” to some people, she’s raising her kids to be “very open about life, death, grief, everything really.” “We try to explain things well and answer every question imaginable in a beautiful, spiritual but literal way,” she wrote. “I know this is a weird post but I just wanted to share these to always remember my incredibly empathetic little mini. life is infinitely better with her in it. I miss u, jack. we miss you a lot.” Both Teigen and Legend, who also share a 2-year-old son named Miles, have honored Jack in their own ways in the weeks since announcing their heartbreak to the world. View this post on Instagram We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before. We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids he needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions. It just wasn’t enough. . . We never decide on our babies’ names until the last possible moment after they’re born, just before we leave the hospital. But we, for some reason, had started to call this little guy in my belly Jack. So he will always be Jack to us. Jack worked so hard to be a part of our little family, and he will be, forever. . . To our Jack – I’m so sorry that the first few moments of your life were met with so many complications, that we couldn’t give you the home you needed to survive. We will always love you. . . Thank you to everyone who has been sending us positive energy, thoughts and prayers. We feel all of your love and truly appreciate you. . . We are so grateful for the life we have, for our wonderful babies Luna and Miles, for all the amazing things we’ve been able to experience. But everyday can’t be full of sunshine. On this darkest of days, we will grieve, we will cry our eyes out. But we will hug and love each other harder and get through it. A post shared by chrissy teigen (@chrissyteigen) on Sep 30, 2020 by 8:58pm PDT After Legend dedicated an emotional performance to his wife at the Billboard Music Awards, Teigen revealed a new tattoo of Jack’s name written in cursive on her inner wrist. Following an extended break from social media, the cookbook author later penned a gut-wrenching personal essay, explaining that her pregnancy complications were a result of partial placental abruption. “After a couple nights at the hospital, my doctor told me exactly what I knew was coming — it was time to say goodbye,” she wrote. “He just wouldn’t survive this, and if it went on any longer, I might not either.” Teigen also addressed the deeply vulnerable hospital photos she shared on social media after her loss, writing, “These photos aren’t for anyone but the people who have lived this or are curious enough to wonder what something like this is like.” “These photos are only for the people who need them," sy het gese. “The thoughts of others do not matter to me.” Elsewhere in the essay, Teigen revealed that the family plans to put Jack’s ashes “into the soil of a tree in our new home, the one we got with his room in mind.”
