Katlynne and Alex met in middle school through a mutual group of friends. Through the years following, a friendship slowly flourished. They became best friends during the beginning of their senior year of high school. For a few years following, they both only grew more fond of each other. After Katlynne moved to Manhattan KS for her schooling in 2015, Alex would drive from Kansas city on every day off he had just to spend time with her. They finally became a couple on January 10, 2016. Not long after, Alex moved to Manhattan to be closer with Katlynne, and they took the next step and moved in together. Like every other relationship, the relationship had its ups and downs. Shortly following their moving in, Alex’s mother suddenly passed away, which allowed each of them to reprioritize their lives and treasure what was important. Thats when they both realized they had fallen in love, and had each other to cherish forever. Alex sheepishly asked Katlynne to be his forever on November 13, 2017. A question that she gladly said yes!
