The stunner posted a snap of her stretch marks to her Twitter and Snapachat page, alongside the caption: “Whatevs”, later commenting that her “thighs have tributaries”.

Teigen immediately explained her decision to post the picture online, claiming she may have had a glass or two of wine before releasing the snap.

“When I drink wine I say "whatevs" and sober Chrissy doesn't like it,” she said.

“I do not post stretchies for the praise. I post it because the wine also I like the pattern and they're so soft,” she added.

Fans were quick to praise the star for her honest post, revealing that it helps when celebrities are real about their bodies.

“Thank u so much for this omg i grew up hating my body bc of my stretch marks nd had no representation of women w visible stretch marks :(,” one fan said.

“Thanks for reminding everyone that not everyone is 100% flawless (even tho you are and stuff),” another person commented.

“Thank you for being real, we need more public figures who aren't afraid to show their perfect imperfections,” another said.

Teigen has been outspoken about her body in the past and revealed the truth about how celebrity mum’s get their pre-baby bodies back so quickly.

Speaking to Today, Chrissy revealed the truth behind how they bounce back so quickly.

“Anyone in the public eye, we have all the help we could ever need to be able to shed everything,” she said.

“We have nutritionists, we have dieticians, we have trainers, we have our own schedules, we have nannies. We have people who make it possible for us to get back into shape.

“Nobody should feel like that’s normal, or like that’s realistic.”
