Teigen and Legend appear to have one of the strongest connections among Hollywood couples, and they seem to genuinely love each other. Like many people who date in showbusiness, their relationship had to develop slowly. Shortly after they met, Legend had to go on an extended musical tour that meant they started out long distance. But once Legend returned home, they realized their bond was real.

“Once we started spending more time together between tour stops and all this other stuff, we realized we had such a connection,” Legend told E!. “And then it blossomed into a marriage and a baby.”

Actually, make that two babies, as Legend and Teigen have celebrated the birth of their second child since then. Legend and Teigen have come a long way since 2007. Check out all their cutest moments and comments about each in this timeline of how they came to be Mr. and Mrs. Legend.

Chrissy Teigen was a 21-year-old Sports Illustrated cover girl. John Legend was a singing legend. The two met on the set of his 2007 music video, “Stereo.” Teigen was impressed that the musician ironed his own clothes. One thing led to another after a post-shoot dinner at In-N-Out Burger. "I'm not going to lie. We hooked up,” Teigen later revealed to Cosmopolitan.

Not at all. Legend isn’t the sort of person who jumps into a new relationship. “I’m more cautious than that,” he told L.A. Confidential. “I wasn’t like, ‘This is the woman I’m going to marry’ from day one. For me I’m the kind of person who needs to grow into that feeling. It was probably a couple of years in when I could already see us being together forever.”

Another reason the couple took it slow was because Legend went on tour for a year shortly after their first date. The two kept in touch, but Teigen let things develop at their own pace. “I let him be himself for a while,” she told Cosmo. “The worst thing you can do is try to lock someone like that down early on, then have them think, There’s so much more out there. I played it cool for a long time. Never once did I ask, ‘What are we?’ Marriage was never my goal, because I’ve never been very traditional. I was just happy to be with him.”

For Legend and Teigen, spending a year apart was actually a plus. Long-distance communication helped Legend appreciate Teigen’s sense of humor. "I fell in love with her over the phone because she is good with those 140 characters," Legend told Entertainment Tonight. “We were texting a lot, and I started to see her sense of humor … We would talk on the phone, and I started to fall in love with how engaging and witty and funny she is."

For Teigen, the moment she realized Legend was “The One” was during their first vacation together, to Italy’s picturesque Lake Como, which was also the site of their future wedding.

Teigen shared the adorable story in a 2016 Instagram post. “A boat tour guide took us to a little spot on the lake and told us to make a wish,” she wrote. “I asked for this to be the man I marry and have children with. I think John asked for the most perfect bite of cacio e pepe. Both came true, and here we are.”

Yes, but only briefly. “Early on in the relationship, I was on tour with him and he’d gotten sick,” the model told Cosmo. “He was feeling really bummed and stressed out. He was like, 'I can’t be in a relationship right now.’ That lasted for one day. Literally, a day. I knew it came from a place other than us not working. It was the stress of him having to maybe cancel a show, and he had never been in a real relationship — or so he says now."

Legend asked Teigen to marry him on the beach during a Christmas trip to the Maldives in 2011. He kept things simple and classic. “There was no big grand speech or anything, it was just very lovely and sweet,” Teigen said on FABlife.

Legend managed to keep the proposal a secret, but the surprise was almost ruined. “I knew I was going to propose by then, so I was planning it a couple months in advance,” Legend told Oprah. “And I was trying to hide the ring in my bag, and she can see anything in my bag — I don’t hide stuff from her — so I had to put it in a nondescript box that she wouldn’t question.”

Sure enough, airport security almost blew it. “It was in my carry-on bag going through the airport security, and security wanted to look through my bag and they wanted to look in that particular box,” Legend said. “And Chrissy was standing right next to me and I was, like, oh, my God. I’ve hid it so well this whole time. Now as we’re just about to get to the Maldives she’s going find out I have a ring in this box and it’s going to ruin the surprise and I’ll have to get on my knees in the airport. In front of security.”

But in the end, security decided not to press the issue, and the ring stayed hidden until the right moment.

Yep. And Teigen says she knew right away. "The first line of it is 'What would I do without your smart mouth,' so if that's not about me I don't know what is," she told The Huffington Post.

Legend confirmed the story with People magazine. “It's inspired by Chrissy. She loved the song and cried when she heard it," Legend said. He also suggested that “All About Me” would make for a pretty great first dance song at their upcoming wedding.

Legend and Teigen would return to Lake Como to film the music video for “All About Me,” in the same house where they would eventually get married.

September 2013, at Villa Pizzo on Lake Como, the same spot where Teigen realized Legend was the one and where they filmed the video for “All About Me.”

The wedding included rustic food and a "crepe cake," made of layers of crepes, pastry filling and raspberry sauce. Teigen and Legend required their guests to go on a brief “trek” to get to the location. Teigen was married in a “soft and gorgeous” Vera Wang dress.

But the dress was actually Teigen’s second choice. Legend vetoed her first choice after he accidentally saw it before the wedding. “John is very weird about the dress. He doesn't want to know a thing,” she told Showbiz Tonight. “He actually opened up my laptop one day and it was the first thing he saw and I completely changed the dress after he saw it.”

On October 12th, 2015, Teigen and both announced on Instagram that they were expecting their first baby.

Legend kept things short with the caption, “We’re pregnant!” Teigen, on the other hand, opened up about the couple’s struggle to conceive. "As many of you know, we've been trying to have a baby for a while now," she wrote. "It hasn't been easy, but we kept trying because we can't wait to bring our first child into the world and grow our family. We're so excited that it's finally happening. Thank you for all your love and well wishes. I look forward to all the belly touching!"

Teigen and Legend reportedly had difficulty getting pregnant and eventually used in-vitro fertilization. She discussed their difficulties on Tyra Banks’ talk show, FABLife. "We would have had kids five, six years ago if it had happened," she said. "But my gosh, it's been a process."

On April 17th, 2016, Teigen and Legend welcomed Luna Simone Stephens into the world. Teigen made the official announcement on Instagram. "She's here! Luna Simone Stephens, we are so in love with you! And sleepy. Very sleepy,” Teigen wrote.

Teigen loved being a new mother. "We're so happy," she told Entertainment Tonight. "It's been really exciting and fun, and every day is so different, and seeing all her little changes is so cute.”

On November 21, 2017, Teigan made the announcement on Instagram that they were expecting baby #2, with the help of Luna. In an Instagram video, Teigen gestures to her belly and asks, “Luna, what’s in here?” “BB!” the toddler excitedly replied.

Even though it wasn’t in question, Teigen jokingly confirmed that Legend was the father, to which Legend replied, “Maury will have the final word on this.”

On May 16th, 2018, Teigen announced on Twitter that she had given birth to their second child, writing “Somebody’s herrrrrrre!” A few days later, she officially introduced their son, Miles Theodore Stephens, on Instagram. We are drowning in his little peeps and nuzzles. Our household feels overwhelmed with love. Thank you for all your well wishes!” she wrote.

According to Legend, Miles’ arrival meant the family spent a lot of time at home. “There’s a lot of family days,” he said. “We’ve been home a lot. We haven’t been working much at all… We just enjoy each other’s company.”
