Teigen opened up to Andy Cohen about her 'so jealous and so unhinged' behavior at the start of her relationship with John Legend.

Chrissy Teigen and John Legend appear to be a prime example of spouses championing each other, with their unwavering show of love and support through each of their various endeavors.

But according to Teigen, that wasn't always the case.


In fact, the model and TV personality recently told Andy Cohen she was "so unhinged" at the beginning of their relationship.

While appearing on SiriusXM's Andy Cohen Live, Teigen revealed she was actually quite a jealous girlfriend when the two started dating, noting:

"Going to his shows when I was younger, like when we had first met, and he would pull up a girl for the slow dance and we would fight about this at the end of the night, like, I was so jealous and so unhinged."

The host joked he was surprised Legend didn't break things off with Teigen, saying:

"With all due [respect], I cannot believe he stayed with you."
"If you were b*tching about this portion at the beginning of your relationship...he must be so in love with you. I’d be like, 'F**k this. You’re b*tching about this now?'"

The Cravings cookbook author then recounted a particular display of her "unhinged" behavior on the set of Legend's "Green Light" music video when jealousy got the best of her, adding:

"The ‘Green Light' music video sticks out in my head. Poor Anthony Mandler―this was the director of it―and I was sitting there watching the monitor and [Legend] was just simply talking to a girl."
"It was a party scene and I got in my car, like [mimics car screeching] wheels were going. I was like, I just wasn’t well."

Fortunately, those feelings have since dissolved.

When asked how things are currently, Teigen replied:

"Great. Fantastic."
"Honestly, couldn’t care less about, like, I mean, now I see it. I look at it and I’m like, 'It’s such a positive, fun, like fan experience."

She added that Legend "never never ever" gets jealous of her.

Of course, Teigen did have her reasons.

Legend himself even revealed he wasn't the best boyfriend at the beginning of the relationship.

On an episode of On Purpose with Jay Shetty, Legend shared:

"I was still selfish; I was in my mid-20s still, you know, not ready to fully be the committed partner that I am now."

But things took a turn when the singer realized what he really wanted.

"When you stop being so selfish, when you think about not only the joy you get from a situation and the pleasure you get from it, but also think about your responsibility and your commitment in that situation, I think you just grow and you mature."

We're glad the pair figured it out and are still going strong!

Omar and Tlaib were the first two Muslim women elected to Congress.

Pete Hegseth Ripped After Trying To Claim That The U.S. 'Didn't Start This War' With Iran

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth was criticized after he claimed that the U.S. "didn't start this war" with Iran—just days after the Trump administration authorized an attack on various sites in Iran with the joint efforts of Israel over the weekend.

The war against Iran is already spreading beyond its initial battlefield. Iranian reprisals have struck Gulf states hosting U.S. bases—including Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia—while Hezbollah has entered the fight, firing rockets into Israel and ending a month-long ceasefire.

'SNL' Turns Trump Diss About U.S. Women's Olympic Hockey Team On Its Head With Sweet Monologue Moment

Connor Storrie’s debut Saturday Night Live monologue had just about everything: jokes, a childhood throwback, a few perfectly placed Heated Rivalry innuendos, and—because this is apparently the most athletic season in Studio 8H history—both the gold-winning players from the U.S. men’s and women’s Olympic hockey teams.

The appearance came just days after controversy over invitations to the White House and President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address, giving the night an edge that felt bigger than a typical celebrity-cameo parade.
