Every Time Reba McEntire and Boyfriend Rex Linn Shared the Screen

After meeting on set, Reba McEntire and Rex Linn have continued to enjoy sharing the screen.

McEntire and Linn originally met while filming 1991’s The Gambler Returns: The Luck of the Draw, but they didn’t pursue a romance until nearly three decades later. The singer was previously married to Charlie Battles from 1976 to 1987 and music manager Narvel Blackstock from 1989 to 2015. She shares son Shelby, born in 1990, with Blackstock.

After reconnecting, McEntire and Linn have had fun starring in the same projects, including Big Sky and Happy’s Place.

“Rex and I are best friends. We have the same likes and dislikes. We’re foodies. We love to cook. We each wanted to be a cowboy and a cowgirl,” McEntire exclusively told Us Weekly in an October 2024 cover story. “Then we got into the entertainment business instead. Our dynamic works on and off screen.”

McEntire gushed to Us about how her connection with Linn changed her for the better.

“Rex brings out the little girl in me and I have fun. I’m dorky, I’m goofy. He is too. We love to laugh, and we love each other,” she concluded. “We both love watching television. We’re always on the lookout for a new series or movie to watch. He says that it’s his homework, watching other actors and learning from them. I do it for pure enjoyment. Right now we’re streaming The Penguin.”
