The outing included a grassy picnic with tortilla chips, avocado, baguette, strawberries and apricots, plus Emhoff's dog Jerry. The pair pedaled the swan boats — which rent for about $13 per person per hour — took selfies and skirted the lake's three 60‑foot jet fountains, with Emhoff joking about avoiding the big splash. They finished the day with soft‑serve vanilla cones topped in sprinkles.
Emhoff also used TikTok to address resurfaced comments about antidepressants, saying she has been on SSRI medication for ten years and calling herself "very pro‑SSRIs." She stated the meds "saved my life 100 percent," pushed back against footage being used as political propaganda, and said she has no plan to stop the medication now.
