In March of 2022, Natalie traveled to Palm Beach for spring break to escape LA and visit her cousin, Courtney. While in Palm Beach, she activated the dating app, Bumble. After extending her stay, she decided she would go on one more date. At first, Natalie did not see her match with Blake, but he chose to extend the match. This gave Natalie an extra 24 hours to reach out before the match expired. Blake, a single man in Palm Beach and an expert “Bumbler”, knew something was different about her. After serial dating for months, he wondered if he would ever find “the one”. They matched and quickly made plans the same night. They decided to meet at Le Bar a vin. Natalie arrived first, and when Blake walked in, they locked eyes and the rest was history! A month later, Blake invited Natalie to stay with him in Palm Beach. Blake was wary because his parents were actually staying with him at the time, but Natalie bonded with them right away. Soon after, Natalie quit her job at home, despite many people telling her it was a big mistake. It was the best risk she ever took! Natalie moved into the Ambassador Hotel right down the road from Blake and shortly found a travel nurse assignment. When Blake’s lease ended, he moved in with her. They figured if they could have a blast together living in a studio apartment, it was meant to be! They made trips to Michigan and California and introduced their families. Blake and Natalie soon moved into their own place and have been together ever since. In June of 2024, Blake proposed at Natalie's favorite restaurant, La Goulue, and she said yes!
