Ricky Martin is about to call Australia home. The Voice Australia coach is tweeting about his return from Los Angeles with his twin sons.
The proud papa was clearly bracing for the long night flight, prepared to keep his sons Valentino and Matteo entertained with the Qantas in-flight activity pack for children he snapped, with the message: ''Australia here we go! #longflight.''
Martin is due back on set for the next phase of recording for Channel 9's hit series, with battle rounds to begin filming this weekend.
The Grammy-winner chose his team of 12 singers last month and has since invited Aussie chart-topper Jessica Mauboy to help mentor Team Ricky this week.
The Twitter fanatic sent his new Voice partner an excited message over the social media site, posting: ''@jessicamauboy Cant wait 4 us 2work together @TheVoiceAU Its going 2B really cool! Lets have some fun & help/see them shine! Send u a hug!''
Mauboy was hand-picked by Martin, after he saw her film The Sapphires as an in-flight movie on his last flight Down Under.
''Ricky got off the plane after seeing The Sapphires and said 'who's that girl, she's fantastic,' Adrian Swift, network executive for The Voice said.
Martin was not expected to bring his children to Sydney until the live finals in April, but is understood to have found the separation from them and partner Carlos Gonzales Abella difficult.
