It's the kind of love you don't expect to last in the hills of Hollywood.
However, Chrissy Teigen and John Legend seem to have beaten all the odds and their relationship has just grown from strength to strength.
The deep connection they share was evident last night when John gushed over his 'inspirational' wife.
Chrissy was honoured at the Glamour magazine’s women of the year awards, where John took to the stage to express how proud he is of her.
Starting with some humour, John introduced himself as a “trophy husband.”
But he quickly turned his attention to Chrissy, describing her as a star and the “heart and soul of the family”.
"I am very much in love with this woman...But I’m not the only one who loves her. Many millions of people who aren’t married or related to her love her too," he confessed to the crowd.
“Everywhere I go, I meet people, fans, who used to ask me for an autograph or tell me how much they love my music. Now, the number one comment I get from people who used to be my fans is how much they love Chrissy. She gets bigger cheers than I do at my own concerts. They love her," he added.
John touched on why he thinks she's such a hit with fans and has captured the hearts of millions around the world.
He gushed: “People love her honesty. Her humour. Her beauty and style. Her passion for food. Her sense of adventure and fun. And they love her big, beautiful heart."
"The heart she wears on her sleeve. She inspires so many people and so many women. I mean, she’s the kind of woman you write songs about.”
And John did just that in 2013 and wrote the smash hit All of Me, which was all about Chrissy.
The 39-year-old couldn't finish up his speech without mentioning Chrissy's online presences.
He said: “I think the world may have missed out on Chrissy’s full awesomeness if it weren’t for social media. She would have never fully shone the way she does if she were filtered by publicists and handlers.
“Chrissy’s biggest impact may be the way she proves that just by being the person you are, you can make a difference. Being who you are, unapologetically, you can make a difference.”
“I am amazed by the woman that you’ve become. And I’m truly glad that the rest of the world has finally found out about it, too,” he finished.
The touching words moved the model as she accepted the award, saying that John was the "most incredible husband on the planet” and adding that "you are our everything."
“I didn’t cry during our wedding. I hate you John, I really do,” she said later on, still touched by the speech.
The pair shares two children together, two-year-old, Luna and six-month-old, Miles Theodore.
Chrissy and John have been together since 2007 and going from their moving words about each other, they've truly found something wonderful in one another.
