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.”
She continued, “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.”
