John Legend is coming back to The Voice sooner than you think. The “All of Me” crooner will return as a Coach in spring 2025 for Season 27. And to celebrate the news, he posted the cutest family pic.
“My first 4-baby chair pic! Back at The Voice taping Season 27!” Legend captioned an Instagram picture of himself and his four kids in one of the iconic spinning Coach chairs.

In February 2024, Legend told NBC Insider that his family is one of the main reasons he loves doing The Voice. Instead of being away from them on a tour, he can have a consistent and local schedule. ”I also love that, you know, I live here in Los Angeles, I have four kids,” he said, adding, “It’s nice to work at home, basically, you know? And [it’s nice toto] be able to take my kids to school in the morning and then go to work.”
John Legend’s four kids inspired his new album
Even when he’s away, Legend’s mind is always with his family. In a September 26 Instagram post, Legend highlighted “Always Come Back,” a track he specifically wrote for his four children. “Posting this as I’ve just arrived in Asia for two weeks of shows,” Legend wrote. “Chrissy and I often need to travel for work, but every time we leave, we make our kids one simple promise: We’ll always come back…no matter how far we go, we will return to the ones we love.”
“Everything in this album is inspired by the messages we try to share with our kids to inspire, motivate, comfort them, and help them go to sleep,” Legend said in an August interview with Parents. “When I started the album, I just sat and wrote down a bunch of ideas based on the messages we like to share with them, and built the songs around that.”
