Years together: Almost four

Occupations: Ali is a political reporter for NBC; Jeremy is a White House correspondent at CNN.

Where they currently live: The U Street neighborhood, where they’re “happily co-habitating and only occasionally using our second bedroom as an escape room,” says Jeremy.

How they met: While covering the President on the road, the duo met at a Trump rally in Iowa.

Ali’s first impression: “What’s a nice way to say not favorable? Haha, I thought he was very cute. We’ll leave it at that.”

Jeremy’s first impression: “I thought she was beautiful and spunky, but I’ll admit, I first mainly saw her as someone who would be a tough competitor covering the Trump campaign. Romance came later.”

Their first date: Dating on the campaign trail can be complicated, but the duo hung out alone for the first time when Ali flew from Iowa to New Hampshire after the 2016 caucus. Jeremy was already in New Hampshire, and asked Ali if she wanted to grab breakfast.

She was exhausted, but acquiesced. “He picked me up at the Homewood Suites in Manchester, and proceeded to bring me to breakfast…in Massachusetts, 30 minutes away!” (Jeremy clarifies: “To be clear, the diner in question was worth the drive.”) The conversation flowed easily, and somehow managed to not be dictated by politics. “I just loved how simple it was to be with him,” says Ali.

On falling in love: “Falling in love on the campaign trail was mostly about a collection of moments—a knowing glance during a rally, a bout of hysterical laughter shared during a drive to a rally in Las Vegas, or drinks shared at a now-favorite wine bar in Charleston—all pieced together over several months,” says Jeremy. “Ultimately, we fell in love in the strangest way: driving across the country together, from one Trump rally to the next.”
