After working in Park City, Utah, for eight days, the cinematographer said that being away for that long is 'not the longest' he's been away from home. 'It's not unusual for me to be gone even up to two weeks at a time. You know, I love my family. 'I miss my family, but they're all rooting for me and cheering me on back home,' he told DailyMail.com in an interview that took place on January 27. Justin Ervin spoke exclusively with DailyMail.com at the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah, on January 27 (pictured in Los Angeles in 2023).

'We're a traveling family. When we get to take the kids with us, it's always a special event,' he explained. 'But when we're home, one or the other of us really enjoy diving into full parent mode. So it's either, just full parent mode at home, or full parent mode on the road.'. He went on to describe their kids, who have remained out of the spotlight, as 'a ball of fun.'. 'Every morning is Christmas, every night is WrestleMania,' he spilled.

'I mean, you've seen them in campaigns. We don't show their faces intentionally. 'We think that their identity is their identity, and we think it's up to them to determine how they want to move about in the world. 'So, even though we're proud of them and we'll show things without revealing their identity, we're leaving that to another time,' he told DailyMail.com. 'And whatever they choose to do will be as the result of their own talent and interest.'.

Ashley and Justin met in 2009 while volunteering at a church event and got engaged in June 2010 after he proposed to her on their front stoop of their Brooklyn apartment. The lovebirds married two months later during a private ceremony, in which they opted for a 'traditional' wedding. Ashley and Justin spent much of the early years of their marriage as a long-distance couple as the model was based in New York City and the film director was based in Los Angeles.

'It's absolutely fabulous. I love it. We just meet in LA or New York. We meet in Paris, Miami. It's pretty sexy.'. She said in another interview in 2019 that their secret to a happy marriage is to 'have sex all the time.'. 'Even if you don’t feel like it, just have sex. I have found that if we haven't had sex, we get snippy, and then if we are having sex, we're all over each other. 'For us it's like, "Oh, let's have sex." And then we're just right back in a great mood,' she told Elle magazine.

After welcoming their twins in January 2022, Ashley revealed Justin got a vasectomy since they decided that they were done having children. Years later, Justin describes their marriage as 'very special' and 'unique.'. He told DailyMail.com, 'I would describe it as any other husband would describe being married to their spouse for 15 years. 'I think the visibility adds an interesting context. But I think that you know when you are in love and when you're committed and when you are raising a family, there's a certain beauty, especially over a 15-year period, that is very special and unique to yourselves.'.
