The crowd helped ring in the star’s 70th with a spirited singalong and a card stunt that spelled out “Happy Birthday” among the fans. But the best part? Seeing her reaction to boyfriend Rex Linn pushing out her birthday cake on stage. She quickly embraced him and said “Thank y’all very much. To get to be here with y’all, my friends, people I am so blessed to get to work with. Oh, and Rex Linn, I just love you with all my heart.” Little did she know, this wasn’t the only birthday surprise of the day!
Reba’s son, Shelby Blackstock, and his wife Marissa, helped organize part of the birthday surprise and successfully caught the singer off guard after telling her they wouldn’t be able to attend her show. “She had NO idea we were coming!!!,” the couple wrote in a joint Instagram post.
