When her beau was asked the same question, he said that he came to a conclusion that life without her wouldn’t be complete. He added,

“Loving someone is a very natural feeling that just happens. You can’t just wake up and say I love this person, you feel it.”

Ryan said,

“We’re definitely more strategic than people think we are. When we first started dating, we were in the private stage, but still wanting to share that we were together.”

She went on to say:

“As time has gone on, we’ve moved back from [posting about each other] because we saw that the more that you put out, the more that people feel like they can be in your business.”

Meanwhile, Destiny also mentioned understanding what to share and what to not.
