Sports Illustrated model Chrissy Teigen and husband John Legend are having a baby! The couple announced their exciting news via their respected Instagram accounts on Monday (Oct. 12). After years of fertility struggles, Teigen is three months pregnant with their first child, according to E! News.
There's a bun in the oven and it belongs to one of Hollywood's favorite couples. While the "All of Me" singer kept his announcement short and sweet, 29-year-old Teigen shared a candid message with her fans about how elated they were to welcome a new addition to their family, as well as the battles they faced over the years trying to get pregnant. Before discovering she was pregnant, Teigen and her hubby devoted their love to their adorable dogs.
"John and I are so happy to announce that we are pregnant :) As many of you know, we've been trying to have a baby for a while now," Teigen said in her Instagram post. "It hasn't been easy, but we kept trying because we can't wait to bring our first child into the world and grow our family. We're so excited that it's finally happening. Thank you for all your love and well wishes. I look forward to all the belly touching! Xx"

During an emotional taping of FABLife on Monday (Sept. 14), cohosts Teigen and supermodel Tyra Banks revealed intimate details about their pregnancy journeys. Both admitted to having troubles conceiving and using outside treatments (like IVF) to help the process.
Although known for being very personable and open, Teigen admitted the constant questions surrounding when she and the 36-year-old crooner were going to settle down and have kids were somewhat intrusive. At times, she would take offense to the questions because neither the media nor fans realized how hard she'd been trying to have a baby.
"Chrissy is feeling great and enjoying every second being pregnant," a source told E! News. "She is taking good care of her body and making sure her and their baby are healthy and feeling good. John has been a huge support for Chrissy during this time. He could not be more excited until their baby comes into this world."
The lovebirds, who tied the knot in a New York courthouse and later celebrated lavishly in a wedding ceremony in Lake Como, Italy in 2013, don't want to stop at just one child. According to an interview Teigen did with ABC News, they both want a ton of children.
Congratulations to the happy couple!
