The news came hours after, during a private concert featuring the "All of Me" singer. Legend told the crowd that they'd welcomed "the little baby" that morning. The event's attendees turned to social media to share the news and their congratulations for the family.
Days later, the couple shared a bit more information about their newest addition. Teigen added that Esti Maxine Stephens, whose name was revealed in the post's caption, was healthy and home.
The cookbook author detailed that her house was "bustling" and that their whole family "could not be happier 💕." She continued, "Daddy sheds nightly tears of joy seeing Luna and Miles so full of love, and I am learning you still need diapers with a c section!? We are in bliss. Thank you for all the love and well wishes - we feel it all! X"
Esti Maxine comes nearly two-and-a-half years after Teigen and Legend lost their third child, Jack. Since then, Teigen and Legend have opened up about their grief and fertility challenges. Speaking to PEOPLE in March 2022, the singer shared his and his wife's hopes to destigmatize the struggles many women go through.
"I think both of us have felt like it's good for us to share this with other people because other people are going through it too, we don't think they should suffer in silence without knowing there are other people out there who are feeling the same thing," he said. Both Miles and Luna were conceived through IVF as well.

Pernilla Sjoholm's Twins
Pernilla Sjoholm, one of the victims featured in the Tinder Swindler documentary, became a mom to twins on Jan. 1. In an Instagram Reel she posted after her deliveries, Sjoholm shared that when she went into labor on New Year's Eve, she was worried she'd have her son and daughter in different years.
But her babies – whom she welcomed with partner Calle Schirren – arrived one hour apart in the afternoon on New Year's Day. "It was a long delivery. They were healthy throughout the delivery," Sjoholm detailed in her social media post. "But for me, it was very difficult, and I lost a lot of blood and had preeclampsia."
The video included sweet photos of the babies in the days post arrival, which showed the twins breastfeeding, wearing matching outfits and snuggling together.
