LONDON: American cookbook author and former model Chrissy Teigen hopes to break the stigma around fertility struggles with a new campaign encouraging women to be more open about their troubles conceiving and seek necessary assistance.
Teigen has joined forces with the US non-profit RESOLVE for the campaign, encouraging couples to use the organisation’s resources and support to help find a fertility specialist. “This was obviously a no-brainer to be able to speak to women that are going through the issues that I went through, the confusion that I went through as a young woman struggling with infertility, to be able to give them this safe haven,” Teigen told Reuters.
In October, Teigen published harrowing photos on her Instagram page of the couple holding and mourning their stillborn son in the hospital.
