“People have asked us, ‘How is the quarantine on your marriage?'” she shared. And now that the kids are back in school, the answer is….not all that much different. “He retired from football about a year before this whole pandemic,” she explained. “So it wasn’t, like, a shocker. He didn’t have work to go to anymore and he was at home. And I work from home a lot, too. So we were just kind of adjusted to that.”
