That’s the mother of my children.”\n<\/p>\n Describing Cohen as his “family for life,” he continued, “I have a tattoo on my finger that says ‘same team’ after my divorce because she and I are on the same team for life. That’s what we say to each other.”\n<\/p>\n Asked about rumors that Taylor Swift<\/a>‘s song “Vigilante S—” off her 2022 Midnights album is about his split<\/a> from Cohen, Braun replied, “No, I never thought that was about us. [Yael] never thought it was about us and everyone else kind of feeding into the fire.
