“We didn’t really hit it off the first time we met. We were just like ‘Hi, what’s up?’ and then we started talking on Instagram like a month later,” he told PeopleNow in April 2020.
Their connection quickly blossomed into something more. “When I’m with him, there’s such a strong sense of peace about us no matter what it is we’re going through that day. I just know he’s the one for me,” Parker told PEOPLE after their July 2021 wedding.
