Alright, here’s the scoop: Chrissy Teigen, one of Hollywood’s most beloved moms, has had her fair share of mom-shaming moments. As the proud parent of two adorable kids—Luna, 3, and Miles, 1—with her equally talented husband, John Legend, Chrissy has faced her fair share of online criticism. But guess what? She’s not letting it get to her too much, and she’s here to spill the tea on what exactly gets people riled up.

When Social Media Goes Full Drama Mode

Let’s break it down. Chrissy, who’s known for her candid and hilarious posts, recently opened up about the types of things that tend to set off the critics. During an interview with Today Parents back in February 2020, she hilariously summed it up: “It’s pretty much everything.” That’s right, folks. Whether it’s a picture of her kids chowing down on ribs or enjoying some sausage, the vegan and vegetarian community isn’t shy about voicing their opinions. “They freak out,” Chrissy joked, adding that these critics believe she and John are forcing meat onto their kids at a young age.

Traveling with Kids: Another Target for Criticism

And guess what else gets the critics buzzing? Chrissy’s frequent family trips. If someone catches even a glimpse of the car seat, buckle talk starts flying left and right. “Maybe for one second the strap slipped down,” she admitted, highlighting how nitpicky things can get. And don’t even get her started on TV. Chrissy and John love having the tube on in their home, but some folks seem to think that’s a no-no. “John and I work on television, we love watching television,” she said, pointing out the irony in the criticism.

  • Now, Chrissy isn’t one to shy away from expressing her feelings. While she’s developed a thicker skin over the years, she’s not immune to the sting of negative comments. “Of course” they still affect her, she confessed, proving that even the strongest among us can feel the weight of online negativity. Kudos to her for being so honest about it.

    Why Chrissy Sometimes Hesitates to Share

    Chrissy’s transparency doesn’t stop there. In a December 2019 chat with Vanity Fair, she revealed her struggles with wanting to post pictures of her kids. “I know a lot of people who make the conscious decision to blur out their kids’ faces,” she shared, expressing her concerns about what others might think. “They must think I’m insane,” she joked, showing her signature humor. Her husband, John, chimed in, revealing that Chrissy is constantly worried about what haters might say. It’s a tough balance between sharing her life with fans and protecting her family’s privacy.

    A Mom Who’s Proud and Open-Hearted

    Despite the occasional haters, Chrissy couldn’t be prouder to be the mom of Luna and Miles. In fact, she’s been known to gush about her kids’ accomplishments. Back in June 2019, she told ET just how verbal Luna is. “Obviously, everyone’s kids say something and you’re like, ‘Where did you get that?’ But with us, it’s like, ‘How did you learn that tone or phrasing?’” Chrissy explained. “She phrases things really well and she, like, holds a beat to give the punch line with things. It’s really interesting. But yeah, she’s so funny.”

    So, Chrissy, don’t you worry. We think you’re doing an incredible job as a mom, and we’re here cheering you on every step of the way!
