Isabel attended the University of Iowa her freshman year and became fast friends with several of Miguel's friends in the wedding party. One weekend, Miguel came up to visit and they had met each other in passing and began getting to know each other after his visit. Just a few weeks later on family weekend 2017, both them, their friends, and all of the parents went out in costume to celebrate the weekend. Isabel stole--and broke--Miguel's wolverine costume claws, and they have been together ever since!
