One minute into our Zoom call, Chrissy Teigen flashes me, demonstrating what happens to her body when she overextends herself. She opens her floral printed Meng silk robe to show me the bruising and healing across her rib cage from her recent breast-implant removal, covering her nipple. “I was raising my arms and moving too much and pulled some stitches,” she explains with a laugh. “I just don’t know how to slow down sometimes.”
The 34-year-old has a full plate running two companies: Cravings by Chrissy Teigen — her lifestyle brand with a cookware and tabletop line, a blog with videos and recipes, and two best-selling cookbooks — and Suit & Thai Productions, her production company, which has a first-look deal with streaming service Hulu (including an upcoming show with the working title Family Style, co-hosted with restaurateur David Chang) and the second season of Quibi series Chrissy’s Court with her mum, Pepper. After helping her mum with her Thai cookbook all quarantine, Teigen will tackle Cravings 3, which she describes as “how I eat now: brighter and healthier”. But most importantly, it’s the cookbook she’s having the most fun working on. “I fully embrace carbs now — like, putting sweet-potato spread on a baguette. A year ago, I would have said you can’t put a starch on bread; now I’m like, who cares? There are no rules.”
