Speaking to Variety about her relationship with Ben, she explained: “When they say, 'You know,' you know. And other times when you didn't know… you also didn't know. I think you always go in with the best of intentions every single time that you ever leap into anything.

“I do, anyway, not just in my personal life but in my professional life too… I think, you know, he sees me as an artist, and he knows I'm going to express myself. He's always my biggest fan and my biggest supporter, as I am of his.”
