Interestingly, she said years later, that at the time she and McCaffrey met, she wasn't actively looking for a relationship.
"Three years ago I was not looking for a relationship," she admitted in a June 2022 Instagram post celebrating their third anniversary. "When my best friends Kristen & Tyler called me and asked if I would be open to meeting their friend Christian I was apprehensive. I was worried it would be the same old story all over again and that all guys were the same. While my expectations were low, I knew I couldn’t close myself off and make decisions based on fear."
"I’m so grateful for the voice inside me that told me to give love another chance," she added at the time, calling her now-husband, "The yin to my yang, you are the epitome of strength through humility. Thank you for being my rock and restoring my faith in love. You are everything I ever dreamed of and more ❤️ ❤️."
