Happy for the musician, 40, she shared a video of his win and wrote on Twitter: 'this is literally the happiest I’ve ever seen John ever????'
Sorry, not sorry: Chrissy Teigen gave a tongue-in-cheek apology after The Voice viewers claimed she spoiled the winner by retweeting show's official account on Tuesday
But some fans, who lived on the West Coast where the episode had yet to air, were left fuming as they complained that she had spoiled it for them.
Sarcastically apologising for the error, Chrissy responded to the criticism: 'truly sorry for spoiling the voice tonight. I thought that since the official account tweeted it, it would be okay.
'But now I realize it wasn’t and will make sure that when my husband wins something with someone, I will wait for each state and every country before being excited.'
Jokingly referring to the show's host Carson Daly, she added: 'well it looks like we are now being penalized for my spoiler and the award has been taken away and given to Carson Daly. Again I apologize.'

Maelyn won the 16th season of the show after a star-studded two-hour finale on NBC that featured performances by top entertainers.
The 26-year-old singer from Frisco, Texas joyously kissed her boyfriend, musician Johnny Murrell, of whom she had spoken often throughout the competition.
'I had no expectations coming into this, so to be standing here, I owe it to everyone who voted and streamed my songs,' said Maelyn of her win.

'I do this for you. I am so grateful, and I am grateful to John for believing in me and being the best coach possible.'
John bounced up and down in delight, proud of his first win, as the first time coach beat the odds to triumph over Blake Shelton, 42, a six-time winner who coached the other three finalists.
Runner-up was Gyth Rigdon, 25, a 'small-town boy' from Singer, Lousiana. Dexter Roberts, 27, from Fayette, Alabama, came in third while Andrew Sevener, 22, of Alvarado, Texas, placed fourth.
