“It all started with a handshake at an event celebrating Quin becoming an Alpha Man. We were introduced and there was instant attraction. After a few months of being friends, Quin insisted on knowing my fall schedule for school and signed up for the same class as me – theatre. That is when the love story began.
From there, we dated throughout college. After graduating we took a hiatus, but remained friends along the way, attending church and having casual outings together. We eventually started dating again in 2018 and have been together ever since. We’ve traveled together, made mistakes together, and endured hardships together. We have had the best moments together.
On May 3, 2020, Quin surprised me with a maternity photoshoot, and this is how he popped the question! Not only have I married the man of my dreams, but I am also married to my best friend.” – Kalyn
