Chrissy Teigen has praised Nick Jonas
The ‘Lip Sync Battle’ star took to Instagram earlier in the week to confirm six-year-old Miles had been found to have the autoimmune disease, which affects insulin production, and one fan suggested she get in touch with the Jonas Brothers singer, who has spoken several times about finding out he has the condition when he was 13.
