Chrissy Teigen, 39, sparked online debate after sharing a bathtub photo with her children—son Miles, 6, daughter Esti, 2, and son Wren, 20 months—at her $17.5M Beverly Hills mansion. Critics argued Miles, who wears an Omnipod for diabetes management, was “too old” to bathe with his mother.
Instagram users slammed the post, with comments like, “Kids deserve privacy too” (@sarabeht) and “Very strange” (@hfollen). Others targeted Teigen’s parenting, with @ucmaids remarking, “Because of how strange she is… I won’t comment on how abnormal it is.”

Chrissy’s Response to “Dirty Bathwater” Criticism
Teigen ignored most backlash but clapped back at a user questioning her “dirty bathwater,” clarifying it was a “coconut milk bath for sensitive skin.” This isn’t the first time her bath routine drew scrutiny. In June 2023, husband John Legend, 46, shared a video of her using his $18 Lovedo1 exfoliating cleanser, which also led to “dirty water” comments.

Family Life and Career Ventures
Teigen and Legend, married since 2013, are parents to Luna, 8, alongside Miles, Esti, and Wren. The couple, who employ four nannies, suffered a pregnancy loss in 2020 with son Jack at 20 weeks.
Beyond parenting, Teigen runs lifestyle brand Cravings and co-founded dog food company Kismet. Legend, an EGOT winner, recently teased a Broadway project and a collaboration with musician Wang Leehom.
