"Every appointment I’ve said to myself, 'ok if it’s healthy today I’ll announce' but then I breathe a sigh of relief to hear a heartbeat and decide I’m just too nervous still.

"I don’t think I’ll ever walk out of an appointment with more excitement than nerves but so far, everything is perfect and beautiful and I’m feeling hopeful and amazing.

"Ok phew it’s been very hard keeping this in for so long!"

In 2020, the couple made a heart-wrenching announcement after losing their son, Jack, at 20 weeks of her pregnancy. Teigen was hospitalised with excessive bleeding before the miscarriage.

The same year, Teigen wrote an essay explaining that doctors diagnosed her with a partial placental abruption. At the time, she urged people to share their stories and “please be kind to those pouring their hearts out”.

Legend and Teigen were married in 2013. The couple is already parents to daughter Luna, aged six, and son Miles, aged four. A rainbow baby is a newborn that comes after'a miscarriage, stillbirth, or the death of an infant from natural causes'.
