“It’s so beautiful [in Oklahoma], and you kind of feel like you’re going into this vortex,” she added. “I guess it’s just nature and God is all right there.”
“I didn’t see any of this coming with Blake. This was just a big old ‘What?’ It was an amazing gift to experience love like that for the first time,” she said. “He’s changed my life … when I [started dating] Blake, that’s when I felt home, like, ‘Oh, this is where I’m supposed to be, with this guy.”
