How did Cassie Randolph and Brighton Reinhardt meet?

'The Bachelor Nation' star Cassie Randolph first met Brighton Reinhardt nearly eight years ago. They had been good friends for around five years before they started dating in 2020. During a 2021 interview with People magazine, Cassie mentioned that the duo's friendship “helped make us really strong."

“It was kind of that we were really young and then we just became friends. And that was it for years. We'd hang out with each other's siblings and families and stuff," she said at that time.

"Last year, we re-connected and it was game over from there. He's honestly my best friend, which I think is such a key thing to have in a relationship. I feel like I haven't really had that before. I feel like we get each other on a different level, especially being friends for so long before. It just made it really natural and easy. I love everything about him." she added.
