Model Chrissy Tiegen has shared a very personal part of her infertility journey with husband, singer John Legend, in an interview that has lots of people talking.

Chrissy Teigen, model and host of ABC's FABlife, has always been very open and honest about her fertility issues and undergoing in vitro fertilization.

And now, she's shared another very personal part of her infertility journey in an interview that's going wildly viral.

There's been no shortage of shares and opinions on what she said when she opened up to People magazine in the issue that comes out Friday.

"Not only am I having a girl, but I picked the girl from her little embryo. I picked her and was like, 'Let's put in the girl.'," said Tiegen.

She goes on to say her husband, singer John Legend would be the best father to a little girl and that she thinks he deserves that bond.

Tiegen also added that a boy will come along and they'll get there too.

Some commenters are congratulating the couple, while others are criticizing their decision to select the gender.
