John Legend shares his heartache over the death of his beloved grandmother

John Legend has shared his heartache over the death of his beloved grandmother.

The singer took to Instagram on Tuesday to pay tribute to Marjorie Maxine Stephens, who passed away just days after her 91st birthday.

The 42-year-old wrote: “My beautiful grandmother, Marjorie Maxine Stephens, left this world early this morning, just a few days after her 91st birthday.”

“We are so grateful for the life she lived, for the love she shared with her many children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, and beyond.”

“She was the most caring and conscientious grandmother you could imagine. She still sent us all birthday cards with cash until her final days.”

“She hosted our yearly Christmas celebrations until we literally couldn’t fit in her little pink house on Heard Avenue in Springfield, Ohio.”

“She was active and full of curiosity and energy until her final days. She always had a story to tell and words of encouragement and love. She supported us and rooted for us unconditionally.”

“I’m so glad she got to see the fruits of all she gave us. She got to travel the world with us, went to my first Grammys. She got to experience the successes of all her offspring.”

“We are the family we are, the individuals we are because of the love she poured into us. We are sad to lose her but most of all so appreciative of the full, blessed life she lived.”

“May she Rest In Peace after running a great race. 💗💗💗💗💗” John concluded the post.

The news comes after John and his wife Chrissy Teigen announced the tragic death of their baby boy Jack.

The couple shared the heartbreaking news of their loss via Instagram back in October, sharing snaps from the hospital just days after Chrissy was hospitalised due to excessive bleeding.

John and Chrissy later got tattoo tributes to their son, getting his name inked on their wrists.
