Meet the hunky actor bringing the heat to ‘Ride’.
Earlier this spring, The Hallmark Channel had us hollerin’ “YEEHAW!” when we learned its new scripted drama, Ride, featured a prominent gay character played by out actor Jake Foy.
Yes, that’s right, the Hallmark Channel—former home of Candace Cameron Bure—has come a long way.
In telling the story of the McMurrays, a prominent Colorado ranch family, Ride‘s approach to LGBTQ+ inclusion has been refreshingly matter-of-fact. Foy plays the youngest of the bunch, Tuff, a gay man who lives his life out and proud, accepted both by his family and the rodeo-obsessed community around him.
