Did Chrissy Teigen share her phone number? Internet mocks her as ‘queen of accidentally posting information’

The reality star posted a snap taken from the hospital bed and a whiteboard on the wall revealed personal details

Chrissy Teigen is not well. Before you jump to conclusions, here's what really happened. The 34-year-old model — who made her debut in the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2010 — called in sick for some pregnancy complications. Married to John Legend, the duo is parents to two kids — Luna, 4, and Miles, 2 — and they announced they are expecting another baby back in August. 

As per the Daily Mail, the reality star posted a snap taken from the hospital bed and a whiteboard on the wall revealed she was in the Maternity Fetal Care Unit at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. As per the same report, she was being administered by a medical professional wearing a blue down jacket with colorful stripes on the sleeves. After her visit to the maternity ward, she said she was taking a break from work after being diagnosed with a high-risk pregnancy.

Not just that, she also revealed that she accidentally shared her phone number and received tons of "get well soon" calls. "Lol I accidentally posted the phone number to my hospital room on Instagram so I have to move, I appreciate the phone calls though you little sweetie pies," she posted on Twitter and sent her fans into a frenzy. 

While many couldn't stop wondering what was the number, others were curious about how it happened. "Wait how does this even work? I’m in Australia and we do have phones in our rooms (some at least) but I’ve literally never seen a single person actually use them, let alone anyone even know what the number is for it? Do you have the numbers up on the wall or something in America?" one fan asked and another replied: "Yes in hospital rooms usually there is a whiteboard that shows the number so you can give to family members/loved ones. People usually just use the phone to order food from the hospital cafeteria."

Many others, however, poked fun at how this was not the first time she had posted personal information on a public forum. "Queen of accidentally posting contact information," one Twitter user wrote while sharing a screenshot of her 2019 tweet. Another joked: "The amount on accidents you keep making on that app." Another Twitter user mocked her: "I wish I could accidentally post my number on Instagram and get hundreds of calls in minutes so I can thank everyone for their concern on Twitter."

It wasn't a surprise that she was flooded with hundreds of messages in no time. She then posted an update: "I just shared as much as you need to know about what’s goin on, on insta stories - medical Twitter I beg you to please not diagnose me as there are so many factors that make me different from your patients."

Many fans sent their best wishes to her and hoped she would be back to her normal routine soon. "Hope you and John are taking this time to think of a great musical name for baby boy. Can’t wait to hear it. Be well!" one said and another wrote: "Just sending you positive vibes that little man can keep safe in that house a little longer. Take care."

Well, keeping all the Internet banter aside — we hope she gets well soon too and gives birth to a lovely and healthy baby!
