Despite wanting her own children to be a part of social media later in life, Teigen talked about featuring all four of her children on her own social media platforms, including Instagram.
‘I share them a lot because, in a large part of my life, I feel like people don’t understand me. But being a mother is what many people understand me.”
The model continued, “I love having this online community here so I can share the ups and downs and people can see it all.”
Also during the talk, the beauty explained that her children are regulated in terms of how much time they spend on iPads and watching YouTube. ‘There is a tight schedule. Maybe an hour on weekends.
He then shared his concern about inappropriate ads on YouTube that young children may be exposed to.

In June 2021, Chrissy became embroiled in controversy when allegations of cyberbullying came to light.
A variety of tweets she shared in the past had resurfaced, one of which showed Teigen urging Courtney Stodden, who was 16 at the time, to “go to sleep forever.”
Other previous tweets had also come to light, which were directed at both Lindsay Lohan and Farrah Abraham.
“Lindsay adds a few more cuts to her wrists when she sees Emma Stone,” the television personality had written in January 2011.
However, later in 2021, Chrissy issued a statement on Medium where she took responsibility for her actions and also apologized.
At the time, she wrote: “I know I’ve been quiet and God knows you don’t want anything to do with me, but I want you to know that I’ve been sitting in a pit of well-deserved global punishment, the ultimate.” “Sit here and think about what you’ve done.”
“There hasn’t been a day, not a single moment, that I haven’t felt the crushing weight of regret for the things I’ve said in the past.”
He later added in the lengthy message that there is “simply no excuse for my horrible past tweets” and said he had been a “troll.”

In conclusion, Chrissy had written: “I will not ask for your forgiveness, only patience and tolerance.”
‘I ask that you allow me, as I promise to allow you, to recognize past mistakes and have the opportunity to seek self-improvement and change…’
In October 2021, she made her first television appearance since the cyberbullying scandal in Today to address the controversy and revealed that he took the time to “grow and learn” from his mistakes.
“I look at my kids and see what I want their values to be and how I want them to treat people, and seeing in myself that I wasn’t doing that was, I think, the hardest part for me.”
Teigen added, “I didn’t really think about the impact or the person on the other end,” while revealing that she also reached out to those she had hurt.
“There’s this whole cliché, ‘I’m glad it happened,’ but it really made me a stronger person, a better person. In fact, today I’m 100 days sober. I feel very clear,” the star said then.
Chrissy stated that since the scandal, she’s “done the work,” adding, “I just hope these people can forgive and be grateful for the fact that they’ve hopefully seen me get better.”
Teigen has continued to be open with her fans and followers, and last month in May, she opened up about “dark” times.
She posted a photo and video of her returning to cross logs, which she had also done a few years earlier when she was “struggling mentally.”

Chrissy later admitted that she still faces mental issues and explained that the crossing was still “difficult.”
‘I thought that since I had seen such dark times since I last did this, I wouldn’t be afraid of this damn thing. But I’m still very scared. Then I realized that now I live my whole life so scared.’
‘I don’t enjoy much outside of my family, my few friends, television and crafts. I feel like a very reduced version of myself. And I know I’m destined to be great.”
She also added that she is “scared” of “letting them down,” but said she will “continue to work on all of this and try to balance my brain with rational thoughts and try to be kind to myself, my body and my mind.”
