All of Me hitmaker John Legend has been criticized for posting a partially naked picture of his wife, which some people consider inappropriate.

The image, which was to celebrate his partner’s 39th birthday, featured his wife, Chrissy Teigen, posing in water in a sexy gold bikini.

The caption read: “You’re so beautiful, creative, brilliant, funny, and cool… I feel so lucky to be your partner in life for life,” the singer wrote.

Though the picture projected his wife’s beauty, some observers thought it was inappropriate for a birthday.

“That’s the picture you choose to honor your wife with? Interesting choice,” a follower wrote…“Don’t know why you would display your wife like this…Unacceptable, disgusting, and an insult to him and his wife. You need God,” another added.

Others also wished Christy a happy birthday and praised her beauty. A fan wrote, “I’m so glad she didn’t let you say “no.” You guys are magic!.”

In September, John Legend shared adorable pictures of two of his children returning to the classroom as the academic year began.

The post on September 4 captured his daughter Luna, 8, and son Miles, 6, celebrating their first day of 3rd and 1st grade, respectively.

Both kids were seen holding up a chalkboard that indicated their age and the grade they were going into as they posed outside.

Miles appeared in blue jeans and a light gray top while Luna wore denim shorts and a white top, pairing it outfit with sneakers. Before this, he celebrated his young family with a new tattoo on his arm.

His wife had previously shared photos, celebrating herself and two of their youngest children. The post showed one of the children sitting on the floor as he drank from a cup and was surrounded by his toys.

John also disclosed working on a music compilation for children, roping in his eight-year-old daughter, Luna. He said, in an interview, that Luna was helping design the cover art for the singles on the album titled My Favorite Dream.
