People Magazine has officially chosen their cutest baby of 2023.
And his parents are mighty famous!
For the last six years, People has been tracking down Hollywood’s most adorable children and celebrating their cuteness and 2023 is no different.
This year People selected John Legend and Chrissy Teigen’s youngest child Wren Stephens as their 2023 Cutest Baby.
As Mamas Uncut previously reported, in June, Legend and Teigen surprised their fans after revealing they were officially parents of four just months after Teigen gave birth to their third child Estie, in January.
“For as long as I can remember, I’ve always wanted four children,” Chrissy Teigen wrote in her Instagram post which announced Wren’s birth. And now, her dream is her reality.
“As a little girl, 2 glow worms and 2 cabbage patch dolls were perpetually in my arms, helping me stir in my pretend kitchen, watching Alf with me. We’d sleep together nightly, each getting the same amount of kisses as to not make the others jealous,” Teigen continued.
“My mom always searched for the Pound Puppy with 4 pups in her push, having no qualms about opening and peeking inside before purchasing. After losing Jack,” the name they gave the son they lost at 21 weeks, “I didn’t think I’d be able to carry any more babies on my own,” Teigen added.
“To be honest, I’ve personally blocked out a lot of my mindset during that time, but one clear memory is being surrounded by people who wanted to make sure I wouldn’t go through that pain and loss again. In 2021, we reached out to a surrogacy agency, with our first correspondence inquiring about perhaps having 2 tandem surrogates, to each bring us a healthy baby boy or girl. Twins, kinda?!”
It was during those talks with the surrogacy agency that Teigen admitted she decided she wanted to try to carry one more child to term. “I remember saying I just couldn’t go on wondering my life if I should have tried again.”
Several months later, after undergoing IVF, Teigen became pregnant with Esti. But they were also working with a surrogate to bring their fourth child into the world as well.
“The first embryo we tried with Alex didn’t survive, and I will never forget how hard she fought to get ready for a second transfer. How much she gave up of her own body—surgeries to get scar tissue cleared, the mental toll it takes to go through all of that for yourself, much less for other people.”
Finally, following the second transfer, Alex learned she was pregnant with Teigen and Legend’s fourth baby, a son. And on June 19th, 2023, Wren Alexander Stephens was born.
“Our hearts and our home are officially full. And to our Jack, we know both their angel kisses are from you.”
Wow, how beautiful is that?
