Chrissy Teigen Snapchats her stretch marks, we fall in love

The former Sports Illustrated cover girl also has a new name for stretch marks which we are lobbying all women adopt.

Chrissy Teigen has been refreshingly honest about what happens to your body after childbirth. The supermodel has shared her hilarious fake tan struggles, and now she’s Snapchatted her stretch marks because she’s a damn goddess.

On Wednesday the model, mama, social media queen and all-round legend posted a close-up of her inner thigh to Snapchat, with the caption “Lol my thighs have tributaries”.

Can we all agree to start calling stretch marks “tributaries” now? It’s so much more fun to say! It’s like “Ooh, look – I’ve got another tributary this morning. Yes!”

Chrissy and her hubby, John Legend.

It’s so refreshing to see from the 30-year-old mother-of-one.

Essentially, Chrissy is saying it’s okay to not be #flawless, and that this whole game we’re all playing pretending to be perfect has got a little of out of hand, and maybe we should all just put away the filters every now and then.

Chrissy – who is married to singer John Legend and gave birth to the couple’s first child, a daughter named Luna born in April – is not shy about sharing her body revelations with her fans.

Last year the American supermodel received praise for posting a shot of her tributaries (it’s catching on, don’t you think?) with the caption: “Bruises from bumping kitchen drawer handles for a week. Stretchies say hi!”

Yes. She’s gloriously real.
