Chrissy Teigen shared more about her pregnancy loss in 2020.   

  According to The Hollywood Reporter , the cookbook author and entrepreneur spoke about that experience Thursday at social impact agency Propper Daley’s “A Day of Unreasonable Conversation” summit held in Beverly Hills, California.   

  Teigen, who is currently pregnant and has two other young children with husband John Legend, reflected on the loss of their son, Jack.   

  “Two years ago, when I was pregnant with Jack, John and my third child, I had to make many difficult and heartbreaking decisions,” the publication quoted her as saying at the summit.  “It became very clear around the halfway point that she wasn’t going to survive and neither was I going to survive without any medical intervention.”   

  After the Supreme Court’s recent decision overturning Roe v. Wade, Teigen said she realized that what she had labeled a miscarriage was actually an abortion.   

  “Let’s call it what it was: It was an abortion,” he said.  “An abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance.  And to be honest, never, ever, until a few months ago.”   

  The “Lip Sync Battle” host had been hospitalized for severe bleeding in the days before announcing her pregnancy loss.   

  “We were never able to stop the bleeding and give our baby the fluids she needed, despite bags and bags of blood transfusions.  It was never enough,” he said in a statement shared on social media at the time.   

  Part of the debate surrounding abortion in some states has been whether it should be legal in cases where the mother’s life is at risk.   

  Teigen, according to THR, said that during a conversation with her husband about abortion and the sympathy she felt for people who have to make an emotional decision to end a pregnancy, Legend helped her realize that she was actually these people.   

  “I fell silent, feeling strange that I hadn’t figured it out that way,” he said.  “I told people we had a miscarriage, people agreed we had a miscarriage, all the headlines said it was a miscarriage.  And I was really disappointed that I didn’t say what it was in the first place, and I felt stupid that it took me over a year to realize that we had had an abortion.”   

  Teigen tweeted the THR story on Friday.   

  “I told you we had a miscarriage because I thought that was it,” she wrote.  “But it was a miscarriage, and we were heartbroken and grateful right away.  It just took me over a year to realize it.”   

  CNN has reached out to a representative for Teigen for comment.
