Miles, the son of Chrissy Teigen and John Legend has a health update.

The 6-year-old son of the Cravings author revealed on Instagram on Wednesday that he had been diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes.

Teigen commented, “Love u guys!!!!” next to the picture.

After fans noticed Miles’ monitor on his arm in a photo Teigen posted earlier this week from the 2024 Paris Olympics, Teigen explained that she felt compelled to share the news of Miles’ diagnosis.

“A lot of you noticed something a little special about a photo I posted a few days ago,” she wrote alongside a picture of her, Miles and Luna holding up signs with Simone Biles’ name on them from the games. “Luna, Miles and I celebrating Simone and Team USA. Miles had his arm up, and so many of you reached out to say the most beautiful and incredible words I have ever witnessed on this platform.”

“You noticed his type -1 diabetes monitor and extended so much love and encouragement in every way possible. I was and am, so blown away by the kindness of this community already. I know. Things could be so much worse!! So many parents around the world are going through unfathomable things that I could never imagine. I tell myself this every time we get a red alert blasted to our phones. And we are so blessed to have so much help and wonderful, kind, huge-hearted specialists.”

“Type 1 diabetes, once known as juvenile diabetes or insulin-dependent diabetes, is a chronic condition,” according to the Mayo Clinic. “In this condition, the pancreas makes little or no insulin. Insulin is a hormone the body uses to allow sugar (glucose) to enter cells to produce energy. Different factors, such as genetics and some viruses, may cause type 1 diabetes. Although type 1 diabetes usually appears during childhood or adolescence, it can develop in adults. Even after a lot of research, type 1 diabetes has no cure.”

Teigen continued, “Miles got diagnosed after getting sick at camp with shigella.” Despite contracting the same disease as the other children, his blood testing showed abnormalities, according to the doctors.
