Just two years after her romantic wedding ceremony to singer John Legend, supermodel Chrissy Teigan has admitted that they are now thinking of starting family.

Her busy career is going from strength to strength, but the model and lifestyle guru told Women’s Health that her schedule is not putting her off having a baby.

"I'm waiting for things to slow down, but things don't seem to be slowing down, ever, so I think, 'Just have one and deal with it,” she explained.

The self-confessed foodie has to watch her figure due to her lucrative modelling career, but admitted that she would like an ‘excuse’ to pile on the pounds.

She said: “I’d love to have an excuse to be bigger. People will know as soon as I'm pregnant because I'll stop drinking.”

Chrissy, 29, claims that she has to pay close attention to her diet and exercise regime.

"I've always had to watch myself. My family is not naturally thin and we put on weight quickly. I find low-carb works for me.

"I used to take pride in the fact I didn't have to work out, and then I hit that age where you have to. I want to drink champagne and have hearty dinners, so I would rather work out for an hour and be able to do what I want."
