Chrissy Teigen Defends Meghan Markle, Says Their Kids Haven’t Had Playdates

At Hello Sunshine's Shine Away event, she promoted type 1 diabetes screening informed by her son's diagnosis.

Overview

  • In an interview with People, Teigen said she “adores” Meghan and called her “incredibly strong,” portraying her as kind, genuine and “living simply.”
  • She argued that critics project narratives onto Meghan and praised the duchess’s approach to scrutiny: “Say whatever you want. I’m happy and I’m healthy and I feel good.”
  • Teigen explained that their children have not had playdates because she mostly stays home, though she said she would be open to one.
  • Her recent cameo in season two of Netflix’s With Love, Meghan renewed attention to their friendship after the pair first crossed paths on Deal or No Deal.
  • At the Los Angeles event, Teigen urged families to pursue type 1 diabetes screening via Sanofi’s telehealth-enabled platform, citing her son Miles’ diagnosis, as some coverage also noted backlash tied to her past online-bullying admissions.
