Sacha bought me a ring so that I could cherish the memory of him every day, she wrote.

“I’m nervous to talk about it because I feel that by not having my relationship in the public domain and not talking about how we met or really talking publicly about our marriage, it’s remained something private and valuable to me,” she said. when asked what the secret of their relationship is.

“I don’t know if it’s a secret. But the shared ability to find humor in the harshness of life will always bring connection,” she added. “And anyway, I just think it’s nice to keep some things to yourself.”
