You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
Our love was written in the stars! We met by accident in New Orleans, a spark we didn’t expect. Life brought us back together in Texas, and this time, love took the lead. From late-night talks to forever vows, our souls chose each other. We married, built a life full of laughter and grace, and were blessed with our miracle baby boy. Every moment feels like a God wink. She’s my heart, my home, my always.
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Another favorite memory is the very first time I saw her in person in New Orleans. She stepped off the elevator, and my mouth literally dropped. I told myself I had to stay away,not realizing that what I was looking at was destiny in motion. Her presence stopped time, and my heart whispered, “That’s her.” I didn’t know it then, but that moment changed everything.
What would you do with $20,000?With $20,000, we’d pour love back into our family and community. We’d invest in our son’s future, expand our faith-based nonprofit supporting Black women and families, and create safe, healing spaces for love to thrive, especially for LGBTQIA+ couples like us. It’s more than money; it’s a chance to build legacy, spread joy, and show the world what purposeful, powerful love looks like.
