John Legend Speaks Out Against ‘Trump Abortion Ban’ As He Reflects On Wife Chrissy Teigen’s Life-Saving Abortion

John Legend is speaking up for women’s rights!

During a newly published interview with Shannon Sharpe for the retired athlete’s hit Club Shay Shay podcast, John Legend took a moment to call out Donald Trump and other politicians who supported the overturning of Roe v. Wade.

Speaking on how an abortion saved his wife, Chrissy Teigen’s life, John Legend shared,

“My wife, she was well past 15 weeks when she had to have an abortion. She was miscarrying and  bleeding out and all of these things were happening, her life was in danger.”

He continued,

“And, for the government to say, ‘We need to evaluate this to make sure you’re sufficiently dying before you can have an abortion.'”

And added,

“No, stay out of it!”

As reported, in 2020 John Legend and Chrissy Teigen announced that they sadly lost their unborn baby due to pregnancy complications. In 2023, Chrissy Teigen shared that she had an abortion and it saved her life. She said at a summit held in Beverly Hills, California,

“Two years ago, when I was pregnant with Jack, John and my third child, I had to make a lot of difficult and heartbreaking decisions. It became very clear around halfway through that he would not survive, and that I wouldn’t either without any medical intervention.”

She added,

“Let’s just call it what it was: It was an abortion. An abortion to save my life for a baby that had absolutely no chance. And to be honest, I never, ever put that together until, actually, a few months ago.”
