Chrissy Teigen and John Legend have adopted a new puppy following the death of their beloved dog Pippa.
The couple’s French Bulldog pooch passed away in Chrissy’s arms earlier this month at the age of 10.
Taking to Instagram on Tuesday, the cookbook author shared a series of photos of the family’s new addition – a basset hound named Pearl.

She wrote: “Pearl has touched down into the legend/teigen/stephens household! We love this little girl so much already but I will admit, she has definitely taken to John first!!”
“Penny is obsessed with her so it’s been fun watching the adventures of penny and pearl unfold. I grew up with Basset Hounds so I can’t wait for John to see this bouncy, no-bones, jello mold of skin grow into the stubborn logs of love I love so much. Excited for this new little heart to add love to our home.”
In the comment section, Chrissy added: “Pippa – we hope you love her name. A tribute to you! You were always an iconic, different lady when your pearls were on.”
“I’ll never forget when they shattered in front of you and you sunk into a funk for weeks until we got you a new one lol.”

Chrissy and John, who tied the knot in 2013, also share a three-legged French Bulldog named Penny, and an English Bulldog named Paul/Pablo.
Announcing the death of her dog Pippa in a heartbreaking social media post, Chrissy wrote: “Our beautiful little Pippa just died in my arms, not long ago. She was 10, I remember picking her up in Gainesville and documenting our trip home.”
“She was a sassy broad – loved her pearl necklace and never took shit from ANY new dog we brought in. Our road dog with Sade, a tour dog for years. we loved her so much.”
“We love you sweet girl. I know you’re giving Puddy hell up there,” she added, referencing the couple’s first dog Puddy who died in 2018. “Thank you for giving us your whole life.”
