Alex and Angel's love story began during the peak of COVID when they swiped right on each other online. They hit it off instantly, chatting for about a day. Angel had just finished a shift at the hospital and, feeling spontaneous, asked if Alex was up for a drink. He had just returned from visiting his parents, but he was up for it. They met that evening at Chili's, and the connection was instant. What started as a casual swipe turned into something special! Over the next few months, Alex grew close to Angel's kids, Adam and Alannah, who loved spending time with him. Through job changes and nursing school, Alex and Angel supported each other. When Angel graduated in 2024, they shortly moved in together May 2024, and soon after, Alex proposed to Angel in Austin, Texas.
