In September 2021 Nora attended the annual NYPD vs. FDNY Gaelic Football match in Rockland county. After the game Nora's future brother in law, Brian, let Christian know that he had caught Nora's eye. Christian was ecstatic about this, though his nerves got the best of him and he did not talk to Nora that night which he tremendously regretted. After a few weeks went by Christian texted Nora asking to take her on a date. Luckily she said yes!

On November 3rd, 2021 Christian and Nora went on their first date to Peter Dillon's bar in Manhattan. They immediately hit it off and the hours flew by until the night ended with a kiss. Sparks flew and they both began to fall in love with each other.

On December 11, 2021 Christian asked Nora to be his date to the NYPD Gaelic football club's dinner dance. That night he also asked her to be his girlfriend and the couple became official.

Over the next two and a half years Nora and Christian became inseparable. Every free moment the couple would spend together whether it be exploring New York City, going to Schroon Lake for long weekends, or simply going on long walks.

On June 29, 2024 Christian suggested going for a long walk at Manor Park before dinner. As the couple was strolling through the park, they sat down next to the gazebo overlooking the water. It's here that Christian got down on one knee and asked Nora to marry him!

SHE SAID YES!
