Chrissy Teigen ‘saw’ late son Jack during a ketamine therapy session

Chrissy Teigen and husband Johannes Legend will never forget their late son Jack, who died stillborn in 2020.

“I had a very nice birthday [and] “I went to see my friends @flamingo_estate, had a delicious lunch with friends and then did ketamine therapy,” Teigen, 38, wrote via Instagram on Friday, December 1. “[I] saw space and time and baby jack and some weird penguins and cried and cried and cried. Then laid with my babies, then hot pot, then hung out with my best friend 💗.”

Ketamine is often used to treat depression and anxiety. Patients take small doses to improve overall mood, behavior and mentality, and the substance can have hallucinogenic effects.

Teigen and Legend, 44, announced in September 2020 that they had suffered a pregnancy loss and later clarified that it was a medically necessary abortion. The Cravings founder had suffered a placental abruption, requiring two blood transfusions. She had to deliver the baby, whom the couple named Jack, five months early.

In Memoriam. Chrissy Teigen has been transparent about her grieving process since suffering a pregnancy loss in September 2020. The Cravings author and her husband, John Legend, named their late son Jack and honored his death with an Instagram post the following month. “We never decide on our babies’ names until the last possible moment […]

“We were never able to stop the bleeding and get our baby the fluids he needed,” Teigen wrote via Instagram at the time. “He will always be Jack to us. Jack has worked so hard to be part of our little family, and he will be forever. … We are so grateful for the life we ​​have, for our amazing babies Luna and Miles, for all the wonderful things we have been able to experience. But every day cannot be full of sunshine.”

Jack would have been Teigen and Legend’s third child. They previously welcomed daughter Luna, 7, and son Miles, 5. After Jack’s death, the couple continued to honor his memory by holding a Thai blessing ceremony and getting matching tattoos with his name. Teigen also commissioned her Desire all together cookbook for Jack.

Nearly two years later, Teigen discovered she was pregnant with the couple’s rainbow baby. Daughter Esti Maxine arrived in January, almost six months before son Wren Alexander was born via surrogate in June. (Teigen and Legend had begun the surrogacy process before finding out the model herself was pregnant.)

Three months later, Teigen and Legend renewed their wedding vows on their 10th anniversary. To celebrate, they held a second ceremony in front of their friends, family and children in Lake Como, Italy. (They held their first wedding in the same Italian city in 2013.)

“They have been through so much in recent years that they wanted to renew their vows and their commitment to each other and do it in the place where they got married and where they spent some of the happiest days of their lives,” a second source said Us in September. “It [was] very special. John and Chrissy said they want to do it again in ten years – and their friends are already on their calendars.”
