LeAnn Rimes is the newest female coach in The Voice UK's famous red chairs.
But behind the scenes, the 'Can't Fight The Moonlight' singer, 42, is a doting stepmother to her husband Eddie Cibrian's two sons - 21-year-old model Mason and Jake, 17, whom he shares with his ex-wife Brandi Glanville.

The family of five also celebrates Stepmother's Day every year which falls the Sunday after Mother's Day in the US.
LeAnn's role as a stepmother
"We go to dinner and do the whole thing, the Voice star revealed. "I love the fact that there is a stepmom's day and an option [for stepparents to celebrate]. It’s so different for each family."

"One thing that I know is, I will never replace their mother. I would never try," the 'I Need You' singer wrote on her blog.

"I will, however, love them with all I have and do everything in my power to help raise them in a loving, safe and proper environment. Society will always call me a 'stepmom'. In our house, in our family, we remove the 'step'. We really are all … simply family."
