“Well… the truth is Chrissy was born male. She used a moon bump.”

The surrogacy rumours have been around for a while, but they came to a head recently when Teigen shared a photo of her and Esti to her Instagram last week.

The comments got really weird, really fast and before long, people were speculating about whether the model had used a surrogate or not.

In one of the main comment threads, one person asked, “Who was the surrogate?”

Then another follower chimed in saying, “Well… the truth is Chrissy was born male. During ‘her pregnancy’ they used something called a moon bump. If you’re not familiar with a moon bump just Google it.”

So we did… and we found out that moon bumps are basically ultra-realistic fake pregnant bump prosthetics.

Teigen then shared a screenshot of this thread to her Stories (which have since expired) and wrote: “Obsessed with this comment,” referring to the moon bump conspiracy. 

Teigen then shared an intimate photo from her C-section procedure and wrote over it: “Extremely realistic moon bump.”

“My kids love looking at my scar, they call it the baby hole.”

In March, Teigen told People that she was “excited” about her C-section.

“I was kind of excited because I’m like, ‘Yeah, I’ve done the vaginal thing twice. Let’s try this,'” she said.

She added: “I like that I’ve seen both experiences.”

“The incision is a lot and you never know how your stomach’s going to come together,” she continued. “I think your organs are on the table for a second, but that to me is so cool. I was taking pictures above the seat. I have the craziest pictures of the cord and everything.

“It really is so crazy, but I still think it’s so cool. I’m like, ‘Oh, my God. I was laying there wide awake with my body cut open and a baby comes out.’ Now Miles and Luna love looking at my scar and they call it the baby hole.”
