JOHN EDWARD 'I HELPED CATCH SERIAL KILLERS'

The world's most famous psychic opens up about getting older and his secret side hustle - solving crime!

He's one of the most successful psychic mediums of all time. A man who - during a career spanning more than 30 years - has captivated audiences around the world. His show, Crossing Over, reached millions in the early 2000s and his celebrity fans include the likes of Kim Kardashian, Dr Phil and Oprah Winfrey. But away from the fame and fanfare, John Edward had another sideline - helping the FBI solve crimes.

"Serial killers, missing person cases, profile cases... nobody knows about this," the 53-year-old exclusively reveals to Woman's Day.

"I'm only telling people now as enough time has passed that my life will no longer be threatened by some of the people connected to the cases. The people are behind bars now, so I'm not really concerned about it."

The world-renowned psychic is co-authoring a book with a former FBI agent entitled Chasing Evil, which will detail his experiences the various cases throughout he worked on.

"He wound up coming to me with one specific case and I ended up reading for him, and that blew his mind, so that was how we initially came together," John tells.

NO A-LIST TREATMENT

Considered a "rock star of the psychic world", socialite Kim Kardashian has consulted with John on and off for years.

In 2012, during an episode of the spin-off series Kourtney And Kim Take New York, she and her sister met with him in person to try to communicate with their late father Robert.
