Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have been hit with a pretty big scandal as past instances of Teigen cyber bullying other women have surfaced after nearly a decade. And now, sources are questioning whether the couple’s marriage may be on the rocks during this difficult time.
A source told National Enquirer, “This scandal had come at the worst possible time for John, who just won a Grammy for ‘Bigger Love,’ which was inspired by Chrissy. Now he’s hearing about a dark side to his wife. She’s upset and needs his constant attention and affirmation.”
The source has added that the stress from this negative attention has caused Teigen to experience mood swings and "clingy behavior."
Teigen has apologized for bullying since her mean Tweets from 2011 were brought to light a few weeks ago. In her apology, Teigen said that she had been "an insecure, attention-seeking troll" at the time she made the comments.
Since the bullying scandal was made public, several companies have dropped partnerships with Teigen. Both Macy's and Target have stopped selling Teigen's cookware collection online.
However, John Legend is probably a lot less likely to drop his relationship with Teigen after one past mistake has surfaced. The couple has been married since 2013, and the bulk of Teigen's bullying Tweets were made at least two years prior.
Gossip Cop speculates that tabloids, like the National Enquirer, are simply "capitalzing off of the scandal" with allegations that the couple's marriage is on the rocks. The publication points out that tabloids have always kept close tabs on Teigen and Legend, asserting that they faced problems when the facts were not confirmed.
Teigen and Legend have been married for nearly eight years and share two children together: Luna, 5, and Miles, 3. The public has often been privy to obstacles the couple has faced in their marriage, including postpartum depression in 2017 and the loss of their third child last year. Through all of their challenges, Legend and Teigen have seemed to hold a united front.
