Chrissy Teigen, John Legend accuse Michael Costello of faking DMs amid scandal

Chrissy Teigen has confirmed reports that Instagram messages Michael Costello claimed she sent to him are fake, and she’s coming out with her own receipts.

The clash between Teigen and Costello began earlier this week.

After Chrissy published a posy, apologising for her past “awful” tweets, Costello came forward and said he’s “traumatized, depressed and has thoughts of suicide” because of the model’s alleged bullying behavior years ago.

The fashion designer then shared purported screenshots of a direct message from 2014 as proof.

However, observant fans pointed out things that show that the DMs were falsified.

Chrissy Teigen has now responded, saying the DMs shared by Costello are fabricated.

She released a screenshot of their actual DM to show she didn’t bully Costello and the DMs he shared were falsified.

According to the author’s team, the screenshots shared by Costello in his recent Instagram post were “fake” and she has no idea what the designer is trying to do.

“Chrissy Teigen very clearly and contritely apologized for insensitive public tweets she made around a decade ago. She did not acknowledge nor apologize for sending private messages directing or encouraging self harm. Chrissy is completely surprised and disappointed by Michael Costello‘s recent attack, which includes fictional screenshots from 2014 of supposed private messages that Chrissy did not send,” her statement read.

Along with the extensive response to his allegations, Teigen wrote: “No idea what the [expletive] michael costello is doing. He just released a statement where he didn’t at ALL acknowledge how fake the dm’s were, & now claims to have emails that don’t exist.”

Furthermore, Teigen’s husband and singer John Legend also came forth to support his wife, as he tweeted: “Chrissy apologized for her public tweets, but after her apology, Mr Costello fabricated a DM exchange between them. This exchange was made up, completely fake, never happened.”

“Honestly I don’t know why anyone would fake DMs to insert themselves in this narrative, but that’s what happened,” he said.
