The Sports Illustrated model and husband John Legend are eager to have a large family like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who have three biological children, Shiloh, eight, and six-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, and three adopted children, Maddox, 13, Pax, 11, Zahara, 10, in the very near future.

The 29-year-old beauty said: "We want a lot of kids. I would love to have three or four of my own, and then adopt a few. So basically I'll be pregnant the rest of my life."

While 'All of Me' hitmaker John, 36, doesn't really care whether they have sons or daughters, he says: "[Chrissy] thinks I'm not athletic enough to have a boy. I'm a musician, I'm good with women, and I'm a feminist, so I think I'll be a good 'girl daddy.' "

The couple tied the knot in Italy in 2013, but Chrissy admits their lavish nuptials almost didn't go to plan as they didn't realise they needed to legally marry in the US until four days beforehand.

She told the Summer 2015 issue of DuJour magazine: "I didn't know that we would have to do the traditional vows. I was ready to just sign a piece of paper. But when it actually happened and I was up there, I started crying, of course!"
