How did they first meet?

It's quite an interesting story about how this adorable couple first met. They met during a one-day trip to New York from Washington, D.C. where, Margaret who is not only an American political commentator but also a political strategist, media personality, feminist, gay rights activist, and author, was sent to interview and join Rudy Giuliani's PAC as a fundraiser.

In an interview with ModernLuxury, Margaret shared her memories of when she first time met John confessing it was love at first sight to her.

She said:

"For me, it was love at first sight. In the summer of 2006, I was on a day trip to NYC from Washington, D.C. (where I’d been living while working at the White House for the Bush administration), interviewing to join Rudy Giuliani’s PAC as a fundraiser, when John, who was exactly my type (everyone has a type; mine’s medium-to-dark skin, dark hair, and sparkling eyes) waltzed in with all the flair and command only a Manhattanite can muster."

Later, when departing from D.C., due to a weather problem, Margaret had to stay back in D.C. as her flight was canceled and that's when her recruiter asked John who was a close friend of his, asked him to retrieve her and find her somewhere to stay.

Hence, they ended up having dinner together and a very good talk.
 

Later they started working together which eventually led them to fall for each other. Since then, the couple has had a fairy tale love life and now a happily married life together.
