John Legend shares heartbreaking backstory behind pet bird living at their house

John Legend has explained the heartbreaking backstory behind his family’s new pet bird, Audrey.

Earlier this week, Legend’s wife, model Chrissy Teigen, shared their family had welcomed another member into their home: a bird named Audrey.

Now, Legend is sharing how the pet bird came to be. And as he revealed, the backstory is an emotional one to tell.

While talking with TMZ, Legend revealed the bird belongs to his father-in-law, Teigen’s dad, Ron. Currently, Legend and Teigen are “pet sitting,” he said, adding that it is likely the bird will become a permanent member of the family.

Ron, Legend told TMZ, is battling serious health issues at the moment and is currently in the hospital. Unfortunately, Legend said that while he doesn’t want to “predict” his father-in-law’s passing, Audrey will likely out live Ron.

Unfortunately, Teigen can’t seem to catch a break as she also deals with mom-shamers in the comments of her most recent Instagram post. While sharing what she made her four children for dinner and showcasing the new pans she designed for her line, Teigen was subsequently mom-shamed.

“POV: each kid wants something different for dinner (and dessert,” Teigen wrote while showing off the new pans. However, a lot of people had some things to say about Teigen making her children happy and “giving in” to their demands.

“My dear, I can be your grandmother and telling you this from the bottom of my heart. Don’t start that with the kids, even though you can, you should discipline them that they should eat what’s on the dinner table, it will teach them manners and to appreciate what they have to eat, as so many others in the world are starving! God bless you all,” one commenter wrote.

“My mother used to say, “I’m not running an (expletive) restaurant,” another added with the laughing emoji. “In the household I grew up in, the answer to this POV would be nothing close to this video response.”
