Could John Legend and Chrissy Teigen’s relationship be any more comical? The R&B star, 38, revealed he once miserably failed at breaking up with Teigen, 31.
In a new interview with the Guardian, Legend opened up about that one time he tried to end the relationship but was met with a perfectly Teigen response instead.
“I was really stressed and busy,” Legend recalled. “I was just like: ‘I’d just be happier single right now,’ and she was like ‘No.'” After splitting, they were back together within 90 minutes.
“She pushes me to be funnier,” Legend said of their relationship. “Not because she’s trying to, I think it’s just being around her. And to be bolder.”
Back in November, Teigen relayed her side of this hilarious exchange. According to Teigen, Legend had gotten sick on tour at the time and was “feeling bummed” about it. “It was the stress of him having to maybe cancel a show, and he had never been in a real relationship—or so he says now,” Teigen told Cosmopolitan. “I always joke, ‘Remember when you tried to break up with me?’ He’s like, ‘Yes, sorry. Big mistake.'”

It wasn't a a typical breakup. He was on tour and his voice hurt and he was being a whiny face about everything and so yeah, I was like "no"

Teigen and Legend got married in Italy back in 2013. In the years since, they’ve gifted Twitter with many classic tweets and helped the jaded among us give this whole relationship thing the benefit of the doubt.
