Connect How did your love story begin?

Our love story began at a mutual friend’s house party. Ironically, we both assumed the other was already taken, so neither of us made a move. After a mutual friend let us know we were both single, everything changed. We connected, went on our first date, and have been inseparable ever since. Finding love after 40 taught us that it’s never too late for a beautiful beginning, and we’ve been choosing each other every day since.

What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?

Our favorite memory together was filming a reality TV show. Marcus is naturally a very private person, so stepping in front of cameras and sharing parts of our lives was completely outside of his comfort zone. Through the experience, we laughed, learned more about each other, built deeper trust, and strengthened our bond. Watching him support something that was important to me, despite his reservations, is a memory I’ll always cherish

What would you do with $20,000?

If we won the $20,000, we’d use it in a way that reflects who we are as a couple. Marcus is passionate about helping others and would love to donate a portion to initiatives that support people experiencing homelessness. The rest would go toward a much-needed romantic getaway. We both have demanding careers and spend so much time pouring into others, so we’d cherish the opportunity to unplug, reconnect, and create lasting memories together while also giving back to those in need.
