...Chrissy Teigen and John Legend Lost Their Baby

Why in the hell would someone post a picture like that to Instagram at a time like that.

People are going full blows psychotic because of these apps.

Why do people feel the need to photograph themselves during a crisis like this?

OP is worse than Maria Avedici Santoya.

I bet there are people who have been through the same thing who will appreciate that photo.

On one hand, my condolences to her.

OTOH, even fetuses are over that bitch.

She was about five months into the pregnancy.

Well into the second trimester.

The baby, a boy they named Jack, was stillborn. There was another photo of her and John holding the expired baby.

I realize people grieve in different ways, but this doesn't come across as grieving to me. It comes across as a grab for "Likes," sad face emojis, publicity, calls for a 'People' magazine cover and other interviews, and a book deal on grieving the loss of a child. There's a time and a place for everything, and I don't see this as a time for a photo shoot. But that's just me.

Huh. I thought she was a tranny.

by Anonymousreply 20October 1, 2020 6:36 AM

Tacky to share it, but I know so many women who have had miscarriages or stillborn and it's even harder on them because it's not easy to discuss or inform friends, family, coworkers, neighbors, etc. Not saying that Hallmark should start selling miscarriage cards, but there would be a booming market.

by Anonymousreply 21October 1, 2020 7:26 AM

Not a fan of hers or of the whole "tell-all" mentality. But at the same time, I think it is good to show that anyone can suffer this and there should be no stigma. Michelle Obama was saying how she was afraid to tell people she took fertility treatments because "you didn't talk about it". So many women suffer in silence, probably gain weight and are mocked without anyone knowing what they are going through. If it can help in that respect, then good.

R17 that’s so tacky. I wouldn’t be surprised if she hired a crew of photographers and set up stage lighting. She probably scrolled through the photos to make sure they get the right angles. Same with OP’s photo.

by Anonymousreply 23October 1, 2020 7:57 AM

I have a photographer friend who volunteered to take photos of stillborns, their mothers, and family, at the mother's request.

It's very therapeutic.

That Teigen is sharing these photos in real time is another matter.

People here should learn to distinguish between the two.

1 in 4 pregnancies end in miscarriage. It should be normalized. Parents, especially the women who have to go through the miscarriage, shouldn't feel shamed by it or that they have to keep it a secret and mourn in silence. If more people knew that it happens with such frequency, fewer women would internalize miscarriage as a personal failure and fewer of their partners would be able to get away with blaming them for the event.

R19, no, it's not just you; it's also the stance of any sane, normal, thinking person in the world.

R21, but wouldn't these type of images be triggering to them?

by Anonymousreply 27October 1, 2020 8:53 AM

r27 did you burn all the photos of your grandfather, after he died? Do you need to lock yourself in a closet to weep every time you meet someone with the same name of the friend who died in a car wreck? Can you not watch any media that involves anyone dying in it or that has shots of cemeteries? You can't properly deal with grief by ignoring it.

by Anonymousreply 28October 1, 2020 8:56 AM

R28, I was not talking about myself at all. I was trying to put myself in someone else's shoes and show some empathy — you know, that thing the DL holds in contempt?

by Anonymousreply 29October 1, 2020 9:26 AM

R25 Teigen did not have a miscarriage. She gave birth to a stillborn baby.

It is true FIRST trimester miscarriages are common - nature rids itself of defective fetuses early on in the pregnancy process.

Miscarriage = before 24 weeks

Stillbirth = after 24 weeks, and considered viable

by Anonymousreply 30October 1, 2020 9:33 AM

She’s an attention whore. Period.

by Anonymousreply 31October 1, 2020 10:38 AM

Does this mean she has a uterus? I was under the impression she was a Thai ladyboy until now.

by Anonymousreply 32October 1, 2020 10:48 AM

R19 here again...I see the point people are making about CT publicizing a still taboo trauma, but it's like she didn't feel like she could effectively do that without a B&W photo shoot. So at some level, she wants the attention and she wants the outpouring of sympathy and empathy. I watched the Paris Hilton doc on YouTube (I was bored), and either Paris' sister or her therapist (her sister kind of is her therapist) asked her if she felt like she receives love from social media. Paris admitted she does, and whomever she was speaking with told her it was all "fake love." Paris argued that her fans really do love her, and the other person said they'd have to agree to disagree. This seems to be the same case with Teigen. She used to be very cute and funny on Twitter like 10 years ago (before she was really famous), but the fame changed her and now she just seems addicted to the attention.

These matters should be private and not used for publicity.

I really doubt this was about helping others.

by Anonymousreply 36October 1, 2020 2:02 PM

Can't stand this woman, but I feel bad for her. Apparently, it was her first natural pregnancy (after being told she couldn't conceive naturally and having two kids via IVF).

by Anonymousreply 37October 1, 2020 2:11 PM

This is ridiculous - this does not need to be a social media moment with PICTURES.

This has gotten out of hand.

by Anonymousreply 38October 1, 2020 2:13 PM

Yeah, and it literally just happened a day or two ago. How about waiting a month or two, and then sharing a photo or two about your experiences then after you’ve had some time to grieve and process it??

by Anonymousreply 39October 1, 2020 2:19 PM

Where’s the bloody baby photo? Or how about one of her asshole covered in shit from pushing so hard? Please! This bitch is a nasty fame whore with no boundaries and no moral compass. These photos were totally about getting likes- you can tell by the diamond ring and lack of ugly hospital gown.

by Anonymousreply 40October 1, 2020 5:09 PM

It is not about being taboo. It's that certain things are private or at least many people feel that way. Maybe they expect the world to join in on their grief because they feel they are special and the world cares about them. Or maybe this is the easiest way to share with their real friends. I just don't know anymore.

There is no doubt a huge age and cultural divide on opinions about such a thing.

But when you blur the boundaries between privacy and publicity you have no ground to complain when it enters more private areas.

There are also opinions from celebrity worshippers who support or justify anything their fave celebs do.

Either way I am sorry for them.

That jumped out at me too. It's very sad news and I feel for her, but who was taking the perfectly lit and posed photos?

I think these celebrity types forget how many people they are actually broadcasting to. Teigen has 32 million followers on Insta. 32 MILLION! And geee, I dunno.. maybe 32 million people didn't ask to see a picture of your cradling your dead baby while drinking their morning coffee. It's a little much.

At least Chrissy's social team is probably well-paid and they seem to have a sense of humor. Imagine being the personal photog for Susan Sarandon's Daughter.

Giving support through "likes" for desperate attention whores is as insane as doing what she's doing to get that attention. Celebrities on social media expose how pathetic they are for doing shit like this. It's not acceptable normal behavior and deserves to be called out as cruelly as possible. It's the only way to end this crap.

The funny thing is most women don't hide this stuff at all. So, this notion that this stuff is not talked about is total bullshit. About the only good thing to come out of a tragedy like this is the attention and sympathy they get out of it. So, most women don't hesitate to talk about it. Even some of the men like to show off their grieving. My cousin's husband was going around showing everyone photos of his stillborn baby, as if we asked to see something so gruesome.
