Teigen, 31, has previously said she had the condition since the birth of her daughter Luna in 2016.
Speaking to People, Legend explained: "[As a man] you don't know internally what it feels like. You need to be present and you need to be compassionate, and we're all learning and trying to figure it out as we go."
Praising his wife, 38-year-old Legend continued: "I think it was powerful for her to let a lot of women know they're not alone, and no matter how much money you have or fame, anybody can feel that.
"It's a difficult thing to be a new father and for my wife to be a new mother. [Parenting] advances the level of partnership you share. It's exciting to see how we as a couple grow together and learn how to react to the challenges and the joys."
In an open letter in US Glamour, Teigen said that she was unable to leave the house for long periods of time after she became a mother in April last year.
She wrote at the time: "I have a great life. I have all the help I could need: John, my mother (who lives with us), a nanny, but postpartum does not discriminate.
"I couldn't control it. And that's part of the reason it took me so long to speak up: I felt selfish, icky, and weird saying aloud that I'm struggling. Sometimes I still do."
