The American, most famously regarded as a singer and known for his hit song ‘All Of Me’, was joined by model-author wife Chrissy Teigen and their four children to take in a variety of tourist attractions on the island.

First up was a visit to the On On Hotel, the oldest hotel in Phuket, before a quick stop to refuel with the famous honey toast dish from Phuketique restaurant in Phuket Old Town.

The fun continued for Legend, 45, and his family as they took a boat trip to take in the wonders of Phang Nga Bay before heading back to relax at a private resort at Nai Thon Beach on the north west coast of the island and in the surrounding area.

The family are in Thailand to visit Teigen’s mother Vilailuck “Pepper” Teigen who moved back to Thailand from the United States earlier this year to live in her childhood town of Korat.

Legend is a renowned singer, songwriter, pianist, record producer and actor who has received a total of 12 Grammy Awards throughout his career and also featured as the winning coach on the singing reality competition television series The Voice in 2019. In November of that year he was also named as People magazine’s Sexiest Man Alive.

Teigen, 38, is an American model and television personality who made her professional modeling debut in the annual Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue in 2010. She was born in Utah in the United States to Pepper and her father who is of Norwegian descent. Teigen and Legend met in 2007 before marrying in September 2013.
