Sheamus and Jamie met in college (Go Gators!) through a club on campus. Jamie immediately had a little crush, and her friends were constantly trying to think of ways to have Sheamus around. After a year of on and off flirting, Jamie figured that Sheamus didn’t like her back (Sheamus says “little did she know”) and they kept up a relationship as friends. Eventually, some mutual friends were throwing a party and the couple saw each others names on the invite list. Jamie went so that she could see Sheamus, and Sheamus went in hopes of reconnecting with Jamie. The two found each other and talked for the rest of the night, promising to hang out soon. They did, and met for a coffee date that turned into fours hours of catching up, laughter, and learning more about each other. They also promised to watch the entirety of The Sopranos together “as friends”, a journey that would carry them into the second year of their relationship. After the first episode, Sheamus kissed Jamie and they’ve been together ever since. In December of 2022, the couple took a trip to Costa Rica where Sheamus proposed under the stars in the mountains of Monteverde. Since then, Sheamus and Jamie spent much of their engagement in Gainesville, FL where Jamie finished her doctorate in occupational therapy and started her career and Sheamus worked as a programmer for a game studio. They now live in Richmond, VA and are loving their new chapter. They are parents to their amazing cats, Juniper and Vega, and you can find them watching cult documentaries, hiking, losing at trivia nights, cooking to jazz music, and playing the NYT Spelling Bee or Connections before bed.
