Influencer Nara Smith and her husband, Lucky Blue Smith, have several unspoken rules in their marriage — including one about driving.
“I drive no matter what,” Lucky Blue, 27, said in a Friday, August 22, TikTok video. “I really get bothered when I see girls driving a guy. I don’t know why.”
Nara, 23, noted on Friday that she never even “attempts” to get behind the wheel when they are together after five years of marriage.
“You also always fill up the tank,” she added. “I don’t remember the last time I pumped gas. I probably haven’t in years unless I’m alone.”
For Lucky Blue, driving and refilling the car’s gas are “obvious” duties of his in their relationship.
The couple’s other “unspoken rules” include Lucky Blue always washing the dishes, Nara “scanning the menu” at a restaurant beforehand to order for her spouse and Nara always standing on “the left side” of Lucky Blue.
“You have to be on the left, so I can easily [open doors],” he explained.
Lucky Blue always takes out the trash because Nara refuses to “touch the trash.” In addition, Lucky Blue is in charge of washing their kids’ hair “no matter what.”
“Lucky’s very particular with it,” she said. “I do hairstyles [and] do them when they need an updo.”
Nara, a model, gained a following on social media for sharing the elaborate homemade meals she cooks for Lucky Blue and their children. They share Rumble Honey, 4, Slim Easy, 3, and Whimsy Lou, 17 months, and are currently expecting another baby. (Lucky Blue is also the father of daughter Gravity, 8, from a past relationship.)
Nara’s videos have since sparked commentary about “trad wives,” a term for women who prefer to raise their families following old-fashioned gender stereotypes. Nara, however, has publicly denounced the label, insisting that she and Lucky Blue are quite modern in their views.
“The other day, someone brought it up to me, and they were like, ‘You have a very traditional way of life.’ I’m like, ‘What do you mean?’” Nara said on a July episode of Jay Shetty’s “On Purpose” podcast. “We split chores. I work. My husband works. We have children. We split everything. I cook because I love to, not because I have to. Lucky cleans. There was nothing traditional.”
Nara said that having her first child at 19 appeared to make her more “traditional” to others.
“It never even crossed my mind because I’ve always been such a believer in having people make their own choices and never judging someone else based on how they choose to live their life and much rather celebrating them,” she explained. “It was such a foreign concept to me that people would have a negative opinion on me choosing to start my life in that way, early on.”
Nara previously told Us Weekly that neither she nor Lucky Blue are bothered by the online chatter.
“I think [people] just project whatever they’re feeling onto us because it might be easier for them,” Nara exclusively told Us in November 2024. “We just do our thing. And if it resonates, it does. And if it doesn’t, that’s fine.”
