John Legend broke his silence after his wife Chrissy Teigen opened up on her struggles with alcohol addiction. "We're always honest with each other, so we discuss everything that's on our minds," the Grammy-winning singer told Cosmopolitan.

"When she was thinking about how she wanted to drink less, we talked about it. I just want to support her. I want her to be happy and to live the fullest, most awesome life she can, and I want us to do it together. Whenever she sets her mind to anything, I always tell her, 'I want to support you and help you do it.' "

"There's no problem with openness in our relationship," he said. "You know Chrissy. She doesn't hold anything back! I'm quite reserved, but being with someone like her inspires me to be open about my emotions. She brings them out of me because she's so open about hers."

"I don't want to present myself as the 'perfect spouse' and I don't want to present our relationship as the 'perfect relationship' because I don't think anybody meets that definition. I think it's too much pressure to put on anyone," he added.

"However, I don't mind being known as somebody who's devoted to their wife. I am devoted to Chrissy. And when I write about [my commitment to her], it's me being authentic," he went on. "I think it should be cool to be a good partner, a good spouse, a good father, and/or a good parent. If I'm one of the people who helps make that cooler, I think that's great."

John Legend was engaged to Chrissy Teigen in December 2011 after four years of dating. They swapped wedding vows in September 2013 in Italy. The couple welcomed their daughter in April 2016.

Earlier this month, Chrissy admitted to drinking too much and wanted to get sober. "I was, point blank, just drinking too much," the mother of one revealed. "I got used to being in hair and makeup and having a glass of wine. Then that glass of wine would carry over into me having one before the awards show. And then a bunch at the awards show. And then I felt bad for making kind of an ass of myself to people that I really respected. And that feeling, there's just nothing like that. You feel horrible. It's not a good look for me, for John, for anybody."
