Teigen shared the story behind the ink onInstagram, telling her followers, “Luna drew this butterfly on me today and it seemed fitting to make permanent.”
She added, “I wanted@winterstoneto move and center it, due to issues I also discuss in therapy, but in the end we decided to leave it right where she belonged. A little imperfect, a little messy, but hell she’s here to stay. Lol.”

Legend got his tattoo after Teigencalled him outfor bailing on their tattoo pact during an appearance onThe Ellen DeGeneres Show.
“Luna was drawing on us one night, and she was like, ‘I love this. This is the best butterfly I’ve ever drawn,’ and I was like, ‘I agree,’ " Teigen said. “And then she drew a beautiful floral bouquet on John’s arm, and he was like, ‘I’ll tattoo mine, if you tattoo yours,’ and I was like, ‘Well, I don’t wanna say it, but yours looks a lot better than mine.’ But we support the arts in our household.”
Teigen said Legend promised her, ‘I’ll take a picture of it and then I’ll go get it done,” but he had never followed through. Still, she insisted she loved her butterfly art “so much.”
