Teigen shared a series of photos and videos from their getaway on social media, conveying her thoughts on what being a couple truly means as the years go by. “We celebrated our 13th anniversary in beautiful Morocco this year,” the 40-year-old model wrote in a heartfelt post. This trip included a special candlelit dinner where the couple proudly displayed their affectionate bond, commemorated with a boomerang video of them blowing out a candle on a dessert, set against a backdrop of red rose petals.
The couple first exchanged vows at a courthouse in New York City on September 10, 2013, before holding a large celebration in Lake Como, Italy, four days later. Over the past thirteen years, they have become parents to Luna, 10, Esti, 3, Miles, 8, and Wren, 3. In her recent post, Teigen emphasised that their relationship is rooted in partnership, stating, “I think we are really discovering what being a couple really is, outside of raising children together.”
In her reflection, Teigen also expressed her commitment to supporting Legend through life’s challenges. “Being there when the other person is going through something impossibly hard. It’s that. And the other things, too. Lots of the other things,” she conveyed in her post. She reiterated the importance of choosing each other repeatedly, promising to stand by him and their family through all experiences that lie ahead.
Legend, who is 47, has previously spoken about the evolution of their relationship, noting that becoming parents has altered their focus and priorities. In an interview last September, he remarked, “I think being parents forces you to grow up, and it changes your priorities.” He pointed out that the combination of joy and tragedy they have faced together has only strengthened their connection.
The couple’s journey together has included not only shared joys but also challenges, which Legend believes have solidified their bond. “You know you can go through all this together with a partner, and I think that’s really been the story of our relationship,” he stated. Their relationship, characterised by growth through diverse experiences, paints a picture of a strong partnership built on mutual support.
In an earlier interview, Teigen shared her insights on maintaining a strong and dynamic relationship. She suggested keeping certain aspects of personal life private, explaining, “For all he knows, I have never farted or pooped.” According to her, preserving a sense of allure is essential: “You’ve got to keep the sexy and preserve the sexy in a little bit of ways.”
As Teigen and Legend reflect on their years together, they continue to set an example of a lasting relationship that balances love, partnership, and family life. With their recent getaway marking another chapter in their shared history, fans of the couple can look forward to witnessing more of their journey as they grow together in the years to come.
