They first crossed paths during a college road trip. Gabriella stopped in Tallahassee, where Jurgen was in school. They talked, sparks flew (and yes, he definitely checked her out), but they were in different chapters of life and decided to just be friends… for the time being. Fast forward to December 2020, they reunited at Papaye restaurant in Haiti, and this time, the timing was just right. Two days later, Gabriella met his entire family (no pressure, right?). Two weeks after that, a fortune cookie asked the big question: “Will you be my girlfriend??” Not long after, over ice cream, Jurgen said, “I love you.” The timing was finally right, and the rest is our favorite story.
