We met in 4th grade at Redner Elementary School through Lincoln. We stayed friends through 9th grade and eventually drifted apart since we went to different high schools. After graduation, we both attended Eastern Michigan University and lived on the same floor in the dorms on campus. We became inseparable after a few years apart and began dating towards the end of our educational career. We dated September 2016 - October 2021. On October 23, 2021, LaVonte took Jordan to The Whitney and proposed and the rest is history.
