Teigen’s response was quick to get love from her friends and followers. Actor Patricia Arquette said the comment was “intentionally cruel and ignorant.”
@KatieLMPrice @chrissyteigen This is intentionally cruel and ignorant.
And TV host S.E. Cupp called the comment "disgusting."
@chrissyteigen Disgusting. There’s a moral crisis in this country of people who get off by hurting other people they’ll never meet. We need to rediscover our empathy. ❤️
Teigen previously opened up about her pregnancy loss on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.
