Our Love Story
On a cold, January morning in 2019, Gavin and Lauren crossed paths for the first time. In a London personal training studio, at 6am three times a week, Gavin's fitness journey transitioned into a romantic one observing Lauren as she worked. Her warm heart and kindness lit up the room. After 11 months of Gavin building up the confidence to ask Lauren out, they met in late November to attend the Tina Turner musical in London's West End. Lauren was impressed by Gavin's courteous nature as well as his spontaneity and drive for life.
That was the beginning of a globe-trotting adventure, sharing their passion for work, travel and fitness, complimenting each other's strengths and weaknesses.
In September 2024, Gavin took Lauren to a Greek island for a fitness retreat, with a hidden agenda... to propose at sunset overlooking the Mediterranean Sea.
She said YES...
