Landrell “Donte” & Ana met in 2014 via social media. Ana saw Donte on Facebook & being Ana, confident & forth coming, she jumped in the DMs with “Hope it’s ok to say, but you are really cute!”. To which he responded, “So are you!” They talked nonstop & found out one was in Oklahoma while the other was in the army stationed in North Carolina. She flew out to visit him after a month of talking & they hit it off instantly.

Unfortunately due to distance & timing, they parted ways but remained social media friends, checking in with one another here & there throughout the years.

In 2023, Donte liked 2-3 pictures on her Instagram (after years of silence). This made her curious & noticed they were once again, both single. So once again, she jumped in the DMs with a “Hey big head!”. Again they started talking nonstop just to find out he was now in Africa. With no intentions they continued to converse.

One day Donte said, “For the record I would be open to reconnecting If you’re up for it, I’m down to reconnect.” Which Ana replied, “you read my mind!”

From there they planned a trip to see Usher’s residency in Las Vegas. Once in person, sparks reignited like they never left but stronger this go round! The night of the concert, 7/7/23 they made it official!

7 long months later, Donte moved back to Oklahoma (originally from Oklahoma) & moved in with Ana & her then 15 year old son Kayden. Kayden & Donte hit it off quickly being they are both basketball heads. Kayden could tell how happy he makes his mother & now requests family times.

March 13th 2024, 10 years after meeting & after 10 years of being apart, Donte proposed to Ana via a lottery scratch off ticket at their home. To which of course Ana happily accepted!

Timing is everything! What is meant for you & what is meant to be will always find a way! Love conquers all! This is just the beginning of our love story.
