John Legend Says Facing Son Miles' Type 1 Diabetes Diagnosis Made Him and Chrissy Teigen 'Stronger': We 'Are a Team' (Exclusive)


Musician John Legend reveals what led to his son's recent health scare and how it's changed their family.

It all started with summer camp, where "literally 80% of the kids got the same stomach bug within a day or two of each other," explains Legend when Miles first felt ill. "I remember he was at the emergency room because of it and they checked his blood sugar. Teigen confirmed the diagnosis shortly after posting a photo showing Miles wearing an insulin monitor during the family's recent visit to Paris for the Olympics. Facing the many highs and lows of parenting, like when the pair suffered a painful pregnancy loss back in 2020, has only strengthened Legend and Teigen's bond.
