New year, new babies! Chrissy Teigen, Jenna Johnson and more stars have welcomed children in 2023.
The founder of Cravings, who got married John legend in 2013, gave birth to the couple’s rainbow baby daughter Esti Maxine on January 13.
“What a blessed day,” gushed the “All of Me” crooner at a private concert that night, per social media film material. Legend noted at the time that he hadn’t gotten “a lot of sleep” but was “feeling energized” now that their little one arrived.
Teigen and the Voice mentor – who also share daughter Luna and son Miles – announced earlier in August 2022 that they were expecting another baby.
“The past few years have been a blur of emotions to say the least, but joy has filled our homes and our hearts again. 1 billion shots later (in the leg lately, as you can see!) we have another one on the way,” the former model wrote via Instagram in August 2022, referencing her past fertility struggles and IVF journey. “At every appointment, I’ve told myself, ‘Okay, if it’s healthy today, I’ll announce it,’ but then I breathe a sigh of relief to hear a heartbeat and decide I’m still too nervous. I don’t think I’ll ever leave an appointment with more excitement than nerves, but so far everything is perfect and beautiful and I feel hopeful and amazing. OK phew, it’s been really hard to keep this up for so long!”
Teigen and Legend’s latest addition is their rainbow baby, who arrived nearly three years after the Utah native suffered a miscarriage with late son Jack.
“It was difficult and I was hesitant to share it,” said the EGOT winner during an August 2022 appearance on BBC Radio 4’s “Desert Island Discs” programme. “I think Chrissy was really right when he encouraged us to sharing it because I think it was really powerful for a lot of people. Many more people than anyone realizes are experiencing this.”
Johnson, for her part, gave birth to her first child three days earlier.
“Our world has changed forever 🤍,” the Dancing with the stars pro and husband Val Chmerkovsky captioned a joint Instagram post on Jan. 11, in which they shared a photo of them holding their son’s tiny hand.
The professional dancers, who married in 2019, revealed in July 2022 that they were expecting a baby after years of fertility struggles.

Let’s do it,’ de So you think you can dance alum exclusively told Us weekly the following September about her changing body and childbirth. “A lot of things are happening to my body that are strange and not normal [Val] just makes me feel like an absolute beauty queen.
