A hard, but important move for the family-of-four

If you think that’s a steep price to pay, know that the couple bought the house right after listing their long-time home (also in Beverly Hills), for close to $24 million.A nighttime view of the $17.5 million mansion where Chrissy Teigen and John Legend live in Beverly Hills.

“We thought we were going to have a new addition to our family earlier this year, and so we were thinking we wanted more bedrooms and more living space,” Legend shared with Architectural Digest.

“The emotions of that are very intense,” Teigen shares.

“Thinking about all the things that house has experienced and all the transitions and what my life has been through. It is incredible. It is more than just a space,” says the model mom of their former Beverly Hills home.

“We have the same taste,” says the cookbook author. “I tend to love really soft things that are feminine, and he does too. Roses, blushes, nudes, grays. See, to me, there are like 10 different types of gray, and I love that. He loves things romantic and feminine too.”

Every bit the perfect host, the model mom says she “never” leaves the house since they’re always welcoming friends over for dinner parties.

“We are the ones that host. I don’t even know anyone else’s space,” Teigen admits.

Fans of the couple became accustomed to their original Beverly Hills manse, particularly the kitchen, as the Cravings cookbook author often streamed on social media as she cooked with her family.

“I feel like people got to know us and our home and I think a lot of people will miss seeing us there,” says Legend of their former Beverly Hills property.
