How These 5 Christian Celebrity Couples Met
By Movieguide® Contributor
Ever wonder how some of our favorite Christian power couples met each other? Some met in very conventional ways, like blind dates, while others met in unconventional ways, like crab hunting or on a reality TV show! We’ve gathered together five of these couples to share how they met.
Sean and Catherine Lowe
Sean and Catherine Lowe, who’ve been married for over ten years now, first met on the TV show THE BACHELOR. God used this unconventional way of reality television to bring these two together. In an interview, Sean shared one reason why he thinks their relationship has continued to stand the test of time.
“The Bachelor is great at making you feel all of these emotions, and you’re riding high on love, and you’re gonna have these feelings for the rest of your life. But once you get into the real world, some days you don’t feel all the love that you had when you got down on one knee,” he continued. “And so for us, it’s just about committing. And part of that is trying to be the best partner you can for your spouse.”
Jeremy and Audrey Roloff
Another couple you may recognize from reality TV is Jeremy and Audrey Roloff, known from their time on the show LITTLE PEOPLE, BIG WORLD. They first met on a blind date in 2010, set up by mutual friends. Although. Audrey admitted it took her a bit longer to warm up to Jeremy.
“He was patiently persistent, I was stubborn and guarded,” Audrey wrote. “That’s when we began three years of writing each other letters on our typewriters while we endured a long distance relationship. Our long-distance relationship ended in an unbreakable covenant on Sept. 20, 2014, and since then we have continued to grow in oneness, Godliness, and more in love… always more.”
Tim and Demi Tebow
Tim and Demi-Leigh Tebow, a power couple for God, met in 2018 at an event in South Africa for Tim’s foundation. The couple tied the knot only six months after initially meeting.
Tim opened up about their instant connection on the night they first met. “Her sister has special needs, so we invited them to Night to Shine in South Africa,” Tebow said. “We kind of met and started talking through that and haven’t stopped.”
The former NFL quarterback talked about the importance of their faith with PEOPLE, “I knew that she was a very special person. And after the initial attraction, we realized that we both share the same faith, which was so important to me,” Tebow shared.
Christian Huff and Sadie Robertson-Huff
Sadie Robertson has been a household name among Christian girls for years. She was made famous first through her family’s TV show, DUCK DYNASTY, but branched out as she began her ministry, writing books and starting her podcast. She preached through her single years as a young adult and surprised fans one day by announcing that she was engaged to Christian Huff! The couple met while crab hunting with Sadie’s siblings—pretty unconventional! They started talking, their love blossomed, and they now expect their third child!
Sadie recalled meeting Christian on the 4th of July. “I had just broken up with my boyfriend the day before,” she said. “We all decided to meet up at the Seaside Tower, right in the middle of the square. It was supposed to be just his two girl cousins, but then Christian tagged along,” she laughed. “I thought I was done with dating, but the moment I saw him, I knew I was in trouble.”
“I told my best friend to delete a video I had made saying I wasn’t going to date anyone for six months,” Sadie joked.
Cole and Savannah LaBrant
Lastly, this viral influencer couple Cole and Savannah LaBrant, who have 12.8 million subscribers on YouTube (at the time of writing this), are proud parents to five children! They are only 28 and 31 years old, respectively. This beloved couple first heard of each other through the app Musica.ly and saw each other’s videos. Later, they ran into each other at the Grove in Los Angeles.
An excerpt from their book, “
I know she was also asking God to send a decent, godly guy into my life. I never imagined Cole might be the answer to that prayer when I sent my sister off to find him. When Cole walked away from that first meeting, I didn’t know I’d met the man of my dreams, but there was something about him that made me want to see him again. He was too young for me, and he lived on the other side of the country, so having any kind of relationship with him was out of the question. Still, I found I was intrigued by him even though I didn’t know anything about him. There was just something about him that drew me. I decided to go with it and see where it might lead.
