In December, the couple announced that they will be having a baby girl, following October's news that Teigen had been undergoing IVF for her to conceive. The TV personality also said she specifically chose a girl for their first baby.
In a separate interview with the same outlet last month, Teigen explained why she and Legend decided to share their pregnancy on social media. "We're not going to go out of our way to hide because obviously it's such a big part of our lives," she explained.
The 30-year-old cookbook author added that she has been thinking about the issue on whether or not to create a social media account for baby Luna. She has been talking to the family lawyer about options but it is unclear when or if she will decide to have the baby's own URL created.
Meanwhile, the clan is reportedly happy and ecstatic about baby Luna's arrival. A source close to Teigen told E! News that Teigen and Legend are "surrounded by family and close friends." The insider went on to share that the baby looks like both of her parents as she has the model looks that her mom boasts of but she also has some of her singing sensation dad's features.
The couple have not yet shared a photo of baby Luna but it is expected that they will post one or two for fans to see in the coming days.
