Sadie Robertson is growing up fast and moving out of the Duck Dynasty shadow. But a large part of her growing up is credited to boyfriend Blake Coward whom the reality TV star recently honored on both her Instagram and Imagli accounts.

Sadie took the opportunity of the upcoming Thanksgiving season to show off her handsome beau with the following caption lining the photo of the striking young man:

"Thanksgiving is rolling around the corner & I have many things to be thankful for. 8 days from now makes 2 years with this incredibly handsome man. He's looks are pretty great, but that's not why I love him. I love him because he loves God way more than he loves me."

The star went on to run down a list of the young man's admirable qualities, including the fact that Blake makes her feel "special, loved and respected."

But what Sadie admires the most is how committed Blake is to his Christian faith, and this is what she is most truly thankful for: "Most importantly I can see Jesus through the way Blake lives his life...The way we have grown through the Lord is what I am truly thankful for. I love you & I'm very thankful for you Blake. 11.9.15," the star wrote.

The Duck Dynasty star who comes from the extended Robertson family is showing that she is growing up in more ways than one.

No longer just a reality TV personality, Sadie is now branching out towards fashion endorsements as well.

The Daily Reveille reports how Sadie is recently showed up at rue21 to announce that she is teaming up with LA-based denim wear Wild Blue to promote the holiday and spring look for the line.

The denim and tops (with styles ranging from skinny high waist to boot cut) are all under $40. Sadie pointed out how a high-waist denim fits perfectly in a stretchy kind of way.

This is not the first time that Sadie promoted a clothing range. The star also promotes a boot line for Roma Boots at Nordstrom. The website features a wide-smiled Sadie fully stocked in boots in a variety of moving shots.

Sadie has also been on "Dancing with the Stars," finishing in a respectable second place, and has released her very own book, "Live Original." There will likewise be a Live Original tour in 2016 as Sadie is waiting for her two upcoming movies, including God's Not Dead 2, to be released.
