Dana Perino and Peter McMahon met on a plane
Perino's love story started with a meet-cute with McMahon on a flight all the way back in 1997.
They were on the same plane that was flying them to Chicago. Their seats were 13 A and 13 C and as Perino once revealed, it was love at first sight. They instantly made a strong connection which got them dating long-distance.
McMahon eventually moved to America to stay close to his lover as things moved fast between them. Before anyone knew it, they were eloping to England to tie the knot in 1998.
The two had only known each other for less than a year when they arrived at the court with two strangers as witnesses to their legal marriage, according to Deseret News.
"Yet, I still get excited if I know he’s coming to meet me after work – little stomach flips every time," Perino wrote in her heartfelt letter to McMahon on the occasion of their 20th anniversary.
