At the University of Michigan in Mary Markley Hall, two freshman would walk into the building at the same time. When Ryan didn't keep the small talk going, Margaret would like the record to show that she introduced herself first. Fast forward to 2019 and they decide to make the relationship official and become more than friends. Through college graduation and new jobs, Margaret and Ryan did long distance for two years. Different time zones couldn't keep them apart and now they have called Cincinnati home since 2023. July 2025 is when Ryan popped the question in the middle of Lake Winnipesauke. Now, they plan to tie the knot August 29, 2026!
