"Rex and I will go see a movie," McEntire, 69, told E! News ahead of The Voice finale on Tuesday, Dec. 10. "We have our Christmas on Christmas Eve and he likes to go see movies, so we'll do that first thing in the morning before the crowds hit the theaters."

But McEntire still plans to have a Christmas dinner with her beau, insisting that after the movie, "Then we'll come back and we'll have our meals."

"You noticed I said 'meals,' because we'll have lunch and supper and probably a midnight snack," McEntire quipped. "That will be our tradition."

The country queen has been dating Linn, her co-star on Big Sky and her new sitcom, Happy's Place, since 2020, but the pair has known each other for much longer than four years.

McEntire initially met Linn, 68, while filming a movie back in 1991. At the time, she was married to Narvel Blackstock, which was her second marriage following her first to Charlie Battles from 1976 to 1987. She and Blackstock would go their separate ways in 2015, and after remaining friends through all those years, she and Linn eventually sparked up a romance.

"He's the love of my life," she previously gushed to PEOPLE in October 2022.

"We're pretty much inseparable."
