I can talk to him like whenever I get good news, bad news. But he’s my best friend and I, I not only do, I love my husband but I like my husband. I like him a lot.”
She added, “And I will say my husband holds it down when it comes to being like thoughtful and he’s like the most romantic person ever. He’ll turn a continental breakfast at a, at a hotel into like some romantic breakfast.And he’s always reminded me he’s like, babe, we haven’t spent any time together. I’m like, babe, we work together, we travel together, we live together, we together all the time.He’s like, no, but like quality time, quantity versus quality. So he’s really the person, the backbone of us keeping that love in our marriage.
Ford also spoke on the topic and said, “I have a great woman that not only has the world seen everything she’s done and they’re so amazed by that, but she’s even a better wife, a better companion, better, best friend, very motivating.”
He added, “I feel like as good or bad as the world treats me.I always feel like a king when I come home. And I think that’s the most important thing for me and anyone else who’s married, like,, just being able to go handle the world, whether the world is giving your flowers or not. Like when I step through the door of our household, I feel like king, I feel like that’s what keeps me going no matter if I have to be patient or whether everything is going well or bad. Like that’s the main thing. And I’m very, very appreciative of that. ‘
