It seems so much goes on behind closed doors in Hollywood, and now, Chrissy Teigen is sharing some skeletons from her closet. The beauty, who is featured in the annual issue of Sports Illustrated swimsuit magazine, admitted that she suffered an illness after baby Luna was born.
Postpartum depression affects a reported 3 million new mothers in the United States each year, and usually arises from fatigue and psychological adjustment to motherhood.
She told Glamour that she battled postpartum depression, but was afraid to say it out loud for fear of sounding “selfish” and “weird.”
