May 2024 · 4 minute read

Chrissy Teigen sister Tina is her half-sister who prefers a less public lifestyle than her well-known sibling. 

Most people are familiar with Chrissy Teigen’s witty and social media-savvy personality, as well as her roles as a mother of two, cookbook author, model, and wife of John Legend.

There are few who are aware that she also has a sister, despite her hosting duties on Lip Sync Battle. Vilailuck “Pepper” Teigen, her mother, is also a prominent figure in her life.

Chrissy announced in February 2019 that both her mother and sister would be joining her on her team to compete on Celebrity Family Feud.

She shared on social media that they would be going up against the cast of a certain show but did not reveal whether they won or lost.

Chrissy did mention that they had a fun time, with some mishaps along the way, including chipping a tooth and setting a record.

She fulfilled her promise by appearing on Celebrity Family Feud in June 2019 with her mother, Tina, John, and John’s older brother, Ron Stephens. The appearance was highly entertaining, as expected.

Tina, who lives in Las Vegas, is known for being very private on social media.

On the other hand, Chrissy, who is very popular online, shares a lot on her Instagram, but she doesn’t feature her older sister Leo.

Chrissy and John attended Tina’s wedding to Corey Speaks back in 2014.

However, they have since separated. Their child, Pasha, is active on Instagram despite Tina’s inactivity on the platform.

Chrissy Teigen sister and Corey are co-parenting their adorable daughter and reside in close proximity to each other in Las Vegas.

Despite any past disagreements, they have successfully made their daughter their top priority and worked together to raise her.

They frequently go on family vacations, employ the same nanny, and have dinner together four times a week.

Christine Diane Teigen was born on November 30, 1985, in Delta, Utah. Her mother, Vilailuck, hails from Thailand, while her father, Ron, is of Norwegian descent and American nationality.

Everyone surely knows who Christine Diane Teigen is, the renowned American model and TV personality who made her debut in the 2010 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue and graced the cover alongside Nina Agdal and Lily Aldridge in 2014.

Her career is nothing short of impressive, having co-hosted Lip Sync Battle, been a panelist on FABLife, and judged Bring the Funny. Not to mention, she’s also the author of three cookbooks.

Recently she faced massive trolling from Instagram users when she announced that she gave birth to a baby girl.

Chrissy Teigen responded to speculation she used a surrogate to gave birth

Chrissy has previously faced negative comments on social media regarding her and her newborn. In response to an Instagram user accusing her and John of misusing Esti’s carrier, she took a stand and defended herself.

It all started on May 8 when the cookbook author shared a photo of their 3-month-old on Instagram, mentioning that the baby still had an angelic mark on their forehead. Unfortunately, not everyone was paying attention to the cute picture.

Over the weekend, the businesswoman and advocate for women’s health posted a series of visual reactions in response to a series of hurtful online allegations suggesting that she had covertly employed a surrogate for the recent arrival of her 4-month-old daughter, Esti Maxine.

Sarcastically, Teigen commented on an intimate photo taken on January 13 after her cesarean section, saying, “Extremely realistic ‘moon bump.”

The cookbook author expressed a particular interest in a comment made by a troll who falsely claimed that Teigen was born male and used a fake pregnancy belly called a “moonbump.” Despite this strange claim, the troll oddly noted that they were also a big fan of Chrissy.

Chrissy Teigen has responded to speculation about the birth of her and John Legend’s daughter Esti.

A commenter asked if Chrissy had a child through a surrogate, and another person replied that she used bump prosthetics called a “moonbump.”

Chrissy appreciated the comment, but she debunked the rumors by sharing a photo after giving birth to Esti and jokingly referring to the “moon bump” as extremely realistic.
