NO HANGOVERS –
Jan. 27, 2026 – Chrissy Teigen revealed she is re-entering her sobriety journey because she “felt like s—t” once she started drinking alcohol again.
The model took to Instagram Tuesday to thank Carl Radke for appearing on her “Self-Conscious” podcast to discuss his own sobriety journey and credited him for “changing [her] life” and perspective on drinking.“After being sober for a little over a year, I went back to drinking. I promised myself it would be in a ‘mindful’ way,” she began in the caption.
Teigen, 40, admitted that she decided to end her sobriety because she wanted to “be able to have a glass of wine on a date night” with husband John Legend and “toast on birthdays.”
In hindsight, she realized that her mindset was dangerous because she was “tying drinking to reward or like some sort of life prize.”
“Soon it became the kind of drinking I’m all too familiar with. Quiet moments at home were for wine. The time went from 6pm, to 5, to 4, to aw hell, it’s lunch, why not. When it got to 11am, I was like, oh f—k, here we go again.”
Although it wasn’t “the kind of drinking where you slur your words and miss a step on the stairs,” Teigen began to notice the small ways it was affecting her life.
