The video, for his single, Wild, features him and his wife Chrissy Teigen on a crazy journey involving cars and horses, and ends with the couple on a beach with their two children, Luna and Miles. Wild is John’s (real name John Stephens) fourth single to be released from his latest album, Bigger Love. It’s another success story for a man who seems to be able to do no wrong.
