But the declaration of love didn’t stop there, as the “Pumped Up Kicks” musician penned a song for their first dance called “Lovers in a Stream.”
“It was a surprise,” she shared of the ballad. “Mark wrote, produced, and sang it. It was very surreal, and the most beautiful present I’ve ever received. It felt like I was floating up in the air—it was the most magical moment I’ve ever had.”
And the magic would continue throughout that year, as Garner won her first Emmy for Ozark, leading her to shout Foster out in her acceptance speech, calling him “the love of my life.”
And he returned the praise, later reflecting on Garner’s “surreal” achievement.
“It took me time to process the last twenty-four hours and find a quiet moment of thought after an incredibly surreal weekend,” he wrote in a since-deleted 2019 Instagram post. “I’m beyond proud of this girl. Congratulations you beautiful angel of a human. It brings me immeasurable joy to see you lifted up and recognized by your peers, your industry, and your fans.”
Foster went on to note that his then-wife deserved “every bit of love and respect.”
“You’re so incredibly special,” he added. “I consider myself the luckiest guy on the planet to be able to watch whatever you do from the front row, with a bag of popcorn and your hand wrapped in mine.”
