Although decades have passed, actress Jennifer Grey will forever be known as Baby as her iconic Dirty Dancing character continues to garner fans across the generations. Everyone who's seen the film likely recalls the famous lift during the film's final dance sequence, but after Grey married Marvel star Clark Gregg in 2001, the actor would often goof around and poke fun at the classic scene. "I basically just walk around the house with me holding her on the lift!" Gregg told Closer Weekly in 2019. "That's all we do!"
"We do it every morning," Gregg joked again with TODAY in 2014. "I brew some tea, I hold the cup, she runs and then I feed it up to her."
But all kidding aside, Gregg has always shown nothing but the utmost regard for his soon-to-be ex-wife's prior success. "There's only one man who can really do that lift and sadly he's no longer with us — the amazing Patrick [Swayze]," the Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. star added. "I will never try it. That was one of our wedding vows."
Instead, the couple's focus on balance was likely one of the reasons their relationship lasted nearly two decades. "When we're in New York, a date night usually involves theater, sushi and maybe a salsa class if she wins or binge-watching if I win!" Gregg told Closer Weekly.
We wish them nothing but the best!
