Jane added: “It’s my opinion that this coming election is even more important than 2020 we have a chance to either keep improving the US as we have the last four years or go back to the darkest time in US history with all the chaos Trump brings.

“I welcome anyone with significant pull like they have bringing fairness back into the fight,” she added, noting how the couple have a “huge spotlight” on them, which has not always been used for “worthy issues”, Jane then concluded: “But this time I think it’s incredible [sic] valuable. I thank them for doing this and I hope they get other celebrities to support them in it.”
