Even his wife joined the fun, joking that he’s known to fall asleep during church too. At this point, it’s safe to say Blake’s nap habits are well-known and a little charming.

And that’s probably why so many people feel connected to him right now. He didn’t make a mistake. He just had a very human moment.
