She was slated to be one of the guest narrators for the series but exited the gig amid the fallout following her cyberbullying scandal.
'Chrissy Teigen has decided to step away from a guest voiceover role in one episode of the upcoming second season of Never Have I Ever,' a spokesperson for the Netflix series said at the time.

The casting news comes just a day after Teigen admitted she's been 'depressed' and 'lost' since taking a step back from public life after she was called out for 'cyber-bullying' people in years past.

In her caption, Chrissy told her 34.9million followers how it 'feels so weird to pretend like nothing happened' while she feels like 'utter s**t in real life,' explaining how she misses connecting with her fans.
