“50 First Dates or make our own movie?” Bryant wrote as he shared the video. The footage, a montage of various visuals, tells how Haley thought Bryant ghosted her after their first meeting in Hawaii. However, she later found through a GoFundMe page that he was in a coma and after waking up he had memory loss. However, without giving up, Haley decided to reconnect with Bryant and took care of him during the difficult times. And guess what? They have been together for one year now.

“Nah, she's wife material. Cause a lot of women out there wouldn't even try to help the way she did,” shared a third.
