Psychic Medium John Edward has been a household name for more than three decades.
In fact, the Crossing Over star was the first medium to really catapult the industry (and himself) into stardom โ well before the likes of Hollywood Medium Tyler Henry and local Aussie reality star, Jackie Gillies.
Now, embarking on his 16th consecutive tour of Australia, John is back and bringing his unique and incredibly special show to the legions of fans โ and their children and grandchildren โ who have followed him for years.
When John sat down with Now to Love, he explained that โtrustโ was the reason that gave him the longevity in this competitive industry.
โIโve been doing this forever,โ John said. โBut I donโt have a media presence and I donโt have a show. Iโm not like: โI have a new bookโ, so why me? Like there are fifty thousand other people that are claiming to do this.
โBut they trust me. So I think thatโs where the longevity comes in. Iโve always put the work first. Itโs not about me itโs about the message.โ
And these โmessagesโ are what keeps people coming back for more โ messages of love, support from loved ones who have passed away.

John Edward sat down with Now to Love to chat about his career.
(Source: Now to Love)And while we were completely fascinated by his 34.5 year career, there was one thing we wanted to know his interpretation of โ what happens when we die.
โSo I donโt know for sure,โ John admitted. โI mean, I have my my philosophy, but like everybody wants me to write that book โ like โwhatโs that guide to the afterlifeโ. And Iโm like guys, I canโt write that book.
โThe reason I canโt write it, is that I donโt live there. I live here. But I believe that when we leave this physical body, which is just a vehicle, and we leave this vehicle, we vibrate at a higher frequency. And I believe that frequency evolves to a plateau or a level of accomplishment on a spiritual level.
John described death as like being โin a video gameโ where you you hit a โhigher scoreโ each life you live.
โI donโt think that we stop learning. I still think that we are on this quest to continue to evolve,โ he said.
โSo I donโt feel like we leave this world and escape anything, I feel like we come to this world to learn and then we evolve home, which is the afterlife,to continue to unpack what we just learned in this lifetime. And itโs a constant growth.โ

John is most famous for his television series Crossing Over.
(Source: Getty Images, 2001)Dealing with people and those they have lost is always a sensitive issue, but John is very well-versed in delivering messages that may be confronting or uncomfortable for his clients.
And when speaking of these particular messages from Spirit, he has one rule: โIf I see it, hear it or feel it, I say it,โ he said. โIf Iโm not supposed to, then donโt tell me. So if it falls in my purview, itโs coming out.โ
โSo I will use that as a gauge, like โdo they know, do they not knowโ this truth; is this a truth youโre going to later find out? Am I planting a seed that could develop later; that they go โoh my godโ thatโs what that was; or is it: โyes, youโre right. We already know that.'โ
โItโs not so much that youโre telling [the client], but youโre experiencing the potential truth with them,โ John revealed.
So, whatโs the most confronting issue he has had to deal with?
โI think if paternity comes in, or health comes in, I think dealing with parents whoโve lost a child who are in that blocked place.
โI think thatโs a difficult place to go to confront that to help them to navigate because you know grief does not yield entitlement regardless of who you are.โ

And itโs no secret that John has read for some of the most famous families in the world, including the Kardashianโs.
During an earlier episode of the hit show, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, John read for Kim, bringing her messages from her late father, Robert.
While it looks like the famous medium is their biggest confidante, itโs far from the truth.
โThe way that actually came about, was at one point, she and I shared a publicist,โ he revealed. โThatโs how it really came through.โ
โLovely family, very very nice, but itโs not like Iโm on speed dial and I talk to them all the time.
โThere have been a number of celebrities over the years that Iโve worked with and no disrespect to any of them, but itโs not where I feel like Iโm best used.โ
When we asked about the reading itself, John admitted that he didnโt โrememberโ.

โIโm going to write a book one day called โborrowed thoughtsโ and thatโs what they feel like. It feels like these are thoughts that come through. The go in and then they go out, and I donโt I donโt recall the events after this, unless theyโre recorded.
โSo any time Iโve done stuff when it comes to television, they always want to go to the celebrity route,โ he admitted.
โBut guys, itโs not my audience. People come to me, want to see. They want to see regular people, they want to see themselves.โ
