“Queen Reba” Returns: Reba McEntire’s Dazzling Comeback and Unstoppable 2025

Reba McEntire, the reigning queen of country and a beloved Coach on The Voice, is back to reclaim her throne in Season 28—and she’s busier, happier, and more unstoppable than ever.

A Whirlwind of Success: From The Voice to Hollywood

As Reba settles into her iconic red chair on The Voice alongside Snoop Dogg, Niall Horan, and Michael Bublé, fans may wonder: how does she juggle it all? Between mentoring new talent, starring in her hit NBC sitcom Happy’s Place (recently renewed for a second season), and producing a film adaptation of Fannie Flagg’s bestseller The All-Girl Filling Station’s Last Reunion, McEntire’s calendar is packed tighter than ever.

But that’s not all. At the 60th Academy of Country Music Awards, Reba wowed audiences as both host and performer, debuting her empowering new single “Trailblazer” with Lainey Wilson and Miranda Lambert—a heartfelt tribute to the pioneering women of country music.

Living Her Best Life—On and Off Stage

Despite her jam-packed schedule, Reba still finds time for what matters most: family, love, and a little fun. She’s often spotted traveling with her son, Shelby Blackstock, and sharing laughter with her longtime partner, Rex Linn. The couple’s chemistry is undeniable, whether they’re dancing at NBC’s Opry 100: A Live Celebration or simply enjoying quiet moments together.

Reba recently celebrated her 70th birthday, revealing her secret to happiness: “Lots of hydration, lots of sleep, eat good, and be happy. Being happy is the main thing … I think I am the happiest I’ve ever been in my life,” she told Extra, crediting Linn as a key reason for her joy.

Reba’s Place: A Culinary Hit

Meanwhile, Reba’s Place—her restaurant in Atoka, Oklahoma—continues to draw crowds from across the nation. With over 300,000 guests since opening in 2023, the eatery’s Southern comfort fare, from biscuits and gravy to dill pickle cheese curds, has become a must-try for fans and foodies alike.

The Voice: A Family of Encouragement

Returning to The Voice, Reba couldn’t be more thrilled to reunite with her fellow Coaches. “We’re nice people. We encourage. We lift up,” she shared on Late Night with Seth Meyers, reflecting on the positive, supportive spirit of the show. While she once hesitated to join for fear of discouraging young talent, Reba now embraces her role as a mentor, bringing warmth, wisdom, and her trademark humor to every episode.

The Legend Continues

With new music, television, film, and her ever-growing restaurant empire, Reba McEntire is living proof that you can have it all—and love every minute of it. As she lights up screens and stages across America, one thing is certain: “Queen Reba” isn’t just back—she’s better than ever.
