The plus-size beauty first met her husband in 2016 after he followed her on Snapchat and made it his mission to take her on a date when he saw that she was visiting New York City.

She previously said: ‘Not until six months after him following me and my antics [on Snapchat] did he see that I was in New York for a few days and so he snapped me something funny and asked me to drinks.

‘I told him to add me on Facebook because let’s be real, I wanted to know what he looked like. He added me [and] my heart sunk. I thought he was so handsome.’ 

After more than a year of dating, the hunk proposed to his then-girlfriend in Central Park in December 2017. 

The couple tied the knot in a private ceremony in California two years later, and made sure to include Brian’s daughter in the nuptials.
