Mother-of-two, supermodel, and refreshingly-honest-teller-of-truths, Chrissy Teigen, has shared a candid video of herself on Twitter.
Relaxing on a family holiday in Bali with her husband, musician John Legend, and children, two-year-old Luna and three-month-old Miles, Teigen tweeted vision of her almost bare post-partum body.
The clip was followed by a series of tweets by the 32-year-old, where she addressed the reality of motherhood, and the danger of unrealistic social media posts.

Referring to her body as a “mom bod”, Teigen shared her thoughts on the impact having a baby has on a woman’s body.
“Instagram is crazy. I think it’s awesome people have killer bodies and are proud to show them off (I really do!!) but I know how hard it can be to forget what (for lack of a better word) regular ol’ bodies look like when everyone looks bonkers amazing,” she tweeted.

The Lip Sync Battle host added, “Also I don’t really call this ‘body confidence’ because I’m not quite there yet. I’m still super insecure. I’m just happy that I can make anyone else out there feel better about themselves!”
