Meghan Markle and Chrissy Teigen's Friendship Is 1 of the Best Things to Come Out of 2021

Chrissy Teigen and Meghan Markle's newfound friendship [1] is one of my favourite things to come out of 2021 so far. The two first met while working together on Deal or No Deal back in the 2000s, but it wasn't until recently that the two got closer. During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen in April, Chrissy revealed that Meghan reached out to her [2] after learning that her son Jack passed away last year. Meghan also opened up about her own experience with pregnancy loss [3] in an essay for The New York Times in November 2020. Chrissy said the duchess "has been so kind" to her ever since they connected, so hopefully this is just the start of a wonderful friendship. Ahead, see all the milestones Chrissy and Meghan have already shared as friends.

During an appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen in April 2021, Chrissy revealed that Meghan personally reached out to her [6] after she experienced pregnancy loss in September 2020. "She's been so kind to me ever since we connected," Chrissy said. "She had written me about baby Jack and loss, but, yeah, she is really wonderful and so kind, just as kind as everyone says she is. That's why you look at everything and you're like, 'My god, what is actually wrong with people where they have to make this person out to be so malicious or so crazy?' when it's just as simple as them being as kind as everyone said they were."

"We have to go to Montecito and chill in the chicken house. Archie's Cluckin' Hut?"
