Correction: screaming!

Not to mention, Blake and her husband Ryan Reynolds have supported Tay and her music from day one—their daughter, James, is *literally* the baby voice in the intro of Reputation‘s “Gorgeous,” and the names of their other daughters, Betty and Inez, are featured in the trilogy of songs depicting Folklore‘s fictional love triangle. Blake also directed a full-on music video for Red (Taylor’s Version) in 2021 in 2021. So, yeah, it’s safe to say that these two are ride or die for each other. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
