Chrissy Teigen is sharing why she decided to speak publicly about using Ozempic. In a new exclusive interview with People on October 11, the 39-year-old model revealed she tried the weight-loss drug after struggling to lose weight following her miscarriage in 2020.
Teigen said she chose to be transparent to help others feel less alone, adding that she’s “always wanted people to know that things weren’t as fluffy and beautiful as they may seem.” She explained that her honesty stems from wanting her children to grow up unafraid of discussing insecurities. “I knew it would really resonate and make a lot of people feel a lot better about their families, themselves, their own bodies,” Teigen said.
