The Couples’ Stories
Taylor and Garrett Find Their Formula
Clean energy policy consultant Taylor and quantum physicist Garrett connected through their shared love of science. Their relationship faced a challenge when Garrett revealed an exchange with his ex-girlfriend on Instagram. Initially, he disclosed liking her message but later admitted to responding.
Taylor, who had experienced infidelity in a previous relationship, expressed her complete vision for their future before their wedding: “I love everything about Garrett. He’s thoughtful, generous and kind. I dream of him playing with our kids… I see us being grandparents together.”
The couple married on the 13th of the month, a date that carried special meaning as both sets of their parents had also married on the 13th.
Ashley and Tyler’s Complex Journey
Recent developments brought public attention to Tyler’s parental status. Bri Thomas posted videos on Instagram regarding Tyler’s relationship with her children. Tyler responded through an Instagram comment: “I don’t owe anyone in this world an explanation. But I’ll give you one, lol. The conversation was longer than what was shown.”
Their wedding featured an unexpected addition when two dancers performed before Ashley walked down the aisle, presenting her mother with a bouquet.
