About this episode

Gladys Knight, the legendary “Empress of Soul,” is stepping back from the stage at 82, choosing to prioritize family over touring. After health concerns and a grueling schedule, she’s scaling down performances to spend more time with her husband and grandchildren, embracing a quieter next chapter. While her son has raised alarms about her well-being and her husband’s influence, Gladys insists she’s thriving. With shows ending mid-November — possibly adjusted based on how they go — she’s turning the spotlight inward, ready to savor life beyond the mic.
