Personal life, Relationships
Meeting with spouse Joey Lawrence
The story of her meeting with spouse Joey Lawrence is fascinating and sounds like a fairytale. The couple met in 1993 while on vacation at Disneyland during their teenage years, and had an ice-cream date. Afterwards, they went their separate ways and went on with their respective lives, in fact Joey was married but then divorced. On the 3rd of July 2005, almost thirteen years after their initial meeting, he and Chandie exchanged wedding vows at the same place they first met, Disneyland after six months of dating.
In an interview with YourTango, Joey shared the beautiful details of how he proposed to the love of his life. He says, ‘…We looked at each other in the car and she started crying. We set a date and a year later we got married’. Their love story is a remarkable one and it seems that the couple are a match made in heaven. Almost a year after becoming husband and wife, the couple welcomed their first child into the world on the 10th of May 2006 and named her Charleston Charli Lawrence. In 2010 their second daughter, Liberty Grace Lawrence was born. Unfortunately she was born with Rh disease, but after a month she had recovered.
