Chrissy Teigen Reveals She’s More Than a Month Sober
Chrissy Teigen opened up about what prompted her to decide to give up alcohol
It’s safe to say that 2020 has been a trying year for everyone, and it’s no secret that Chrissy Teigen experienced great loss first hand when her and husband John Legend said goodbye to their unborn son this fall.
This sober news comes after a photo posted by the model on Instagram, where a follower implies she’s on drugs. Chrissy came back and revealed she was, at the time, 4 weeks sober.

Back in 2017, Chrissy made a few comments about her struggles with alcohol in a Cosmopolitan interview, revealing her family history of alcoholism and that there have been times in her life where she was simply drinking entirely too much. Even knowing these things, she used to think it was “kind of nutty” to go completely sober.
Chrissy had never publicly struggled with alcohol in a manner that raised concern to those around her, but she recognized her tendencies and no longer wished to have that horrible, lingering feeling of embarrassment and disappointment after, as she quotes, “making an a**” out of herself in certain situations.
