John Legend has revealed he and Chrissy Teigen try and make sure their children remain humble as they grow up in privileged circumstances. 

The All Of Me singer, 41, revealed he finds it hard to relate to his children’s upbringing as it is so different to how he grew up before he found fame. 

He and Chrissy share three-year-old Luna and 22-month-old Miles, and he told Rollacoaster: ‘They’re growing up in a very rarefied space, one that I don’t have an experience dealing with as a child. I always try to figure out a way to make sure they’re not a**holes.’

Given John and Chrissy’s huge success and the wealth that comes with it, it’s no wonder they want to make sure their kids know that life isn’t always so blessed. 

John also revealed he is getting to relive life on tour through his children, as he loves to bring them on the road with him when he can. 

He explained: ‘I’ve toured through the different phases of my life, [from] being a bachelor in my mid-twenties, to being a forty-year-old husband with two young kids.

‘I love bringing the family along and I’m excited to have them with me on the tour bus. It’s fun to see the world through their eyes.’

John also insisted that the person the public see is just an extension of the man he is at home, rather than being a persona he puts on in the spotlight. 

‘I don’t really think there’s that big of a difference between who I am most days and who I am at home,’ he explained. 

‘It doesn’t feel like I’m transforming into a new person. It still feels very much like an extension of who I am as a person.’
