Chris and Sam met in 2017 through a mutual friend and quickly became close. Over the course of the next year, their friendship grew stronger. They made their relationship official in 2018 when Sam took Creed (their dog) in when Chris could no longer keep him at his apartment. Which Sam did joke with him the first day she met Creed if she had the chance she would steal him because he was so cute. Their other dog Lilo joined the family in 2021. Two short years later they were blessed with their daughter Charlotte. Chris proposed to Sam at Niagara Falls in May of 2024.
