On Tuesday, Dec. 29, Chrissy Teigen—who is currently on vacation with her family in St. Barts—took to her Instagram to share a cute video of her dancing in a tie-dye one piece.
A fan commented, “I need whatever drugs you’re on!!” to which the former model replied, “4 weeks sober” along with heart emojis and prayer hands emojis. Fans congratulated her strength and also sympathized with her.
“I just got sober as well!!” wrote a fan. “Beautiful!!! I love this!!!” Another added, “amazing! 15 years sober here. Keep going beautiful! One day at a time.”
Teigen has discussed struggles with alcohol in the past, telling Cosmopolitan in 2017 that she was “point blank, just drinking too much” during part of her career.
“I got used to being in hair and makeup and having a glass of wine. Then that glass of wine would carry over into me having one before the awards show. And then a bunch at the awards show,” she said.
“You feel horrible. It’s not a good look for me, for John, for anybody,” she added, referring to her husband, musician John Legend.
In October Teigen lost her child due to pregnancy complications.
“We are shocked and in the kind of deep pain you only hear about, the kind of pain we’ve never felt before,” they said in a statement posted to each of their Twitter accounts.
Teigen later said she was in a “grief depression hole” over the loss. “I’m not tweeting much because I’m honestly in a bit of a grief depression hole but do not worry as I have so much help around me to get better and I’ll be fixed soon,” she wrote.
