Teigen shared Thursday that writing her latestCravingsbook “quite literally saved” her.
“It is incredibly hard to put into words what this book means to me,” she wrote alongside a photo of the colorful cookbook cover posted to Instagram. “How do you come up with a funny, enticing caption for a book that quite literally saved you. I didn’t have a theme in mind when we made this book - all I knew was I wanted a bright new energy, but I also needed comfort.”
Teigen’s cookbook dedication comes after her mom,Vilailuck “Pepper” Teigen,also honored Jackin her own book. The author of thePepper Thai CookbooktoldWSJ Magazinein April that her family is keeping Jack’s memory alive after his passing.
“We talk about him every day. Luna talks about him every day, and that’s how we grieve,” she said. “We’re getting better each day. … We’re getting so much better, and Chrissy too.”
Teigen has been candid about the struggles she faced during and after her miscarriage, marking moments like Jack’s due date on Instagram. In February,she paid tribute to her late sonwith a photo of her wrist featuring three bracelets: one for Luna, one for Miles and one for Jack.
“Today was your due date. we love you forever 💜,” she wrote over the photo.

After losing her son, Teigen said she will “never” be pregnant again.
“Coming to terms with not being able to carry again is still really difficult for me because I feel so healthy. I’m like, why?” shetold PEOPLEin April. “But then I think about it as my uterus is just not cooperating with me — and it’s not a failure.”
Teigen and Legend, 42, previously welcomed their son and daughter via IVF, which Teigen said she’s “so lucky for.”
“I just think of it in terms of how blessed I am already, and also there are so many ways to have a child nowadays … whether it’s surrogacy or adoption,” she added.
