It looks like the author of Cravings has gone off drinking, and celebrated 50 days of continuous sobriety yesterday.
The 35-year-old model and cookbook author took to Instagram to share her achievement, which she says has been her “longest streak yet” in a journey that has had “a few (wine) hiccups in the road”.
The Instagram post shows her joyously rolling around on the floor with her daughter Luna, aged five, and son Miles, aged three, whom she shares with husband John Legend.
Check out the full caption, which sheds more light on her journey to sobriety:

Per Page Six, Teigen had revealed in December last year that she was already one month sober, mentioning that she was done “embarrassing” herself and over not being able to sleep, likely because of the effects of alcohol.
Holly Whitaker’s book, Quit Like a Woman: The Radical Choice to Not Drink in a Culture Obsessed with Alcohol, also came up as a reason for her move into sobriety:
“One month ago, on my birthday, I got this book from my doctor and friend,” she shared at the time, later adding, “I have been sober ever since and even if you can’t see yourself doing it or just plain don’t want to, it is still an incredible read.”
Teigen has had a torrid last year or so, grieving the loss of her son, Jack, as well as dealing with being “cancelled” after model Courtney Stodden called her out for cyber-bullying.
50 days sober is a solid start on the road to recovery.
