Inside Hallmark Stars Eric Winter And Roselyn Sanchez's Real-Life Romance

According to InStyle, Eric Winter and Roselyn Sanchez first met in 2005. However, it took Winter three months to approach his would-be wife. "It finally crossed my mind to ask her out," Winter said. Per the publication, their first date (a sushi dinner) went off without a hitch so they followed it up with a weekend date in California. In 2007, after two years of dating, Winter proposed to Sanchez at midnight on Puerto Rico's Vieques' bay, per TV Guide. And instead of just buying her any old diamond, Winter designed Sanchez a custom-made ring that suited her taste. "I was very specific about what I wanted," shared Sanchez with PR Newswire. "Designer Michael Barin made it — a radiant-cut diamond and I wear it with two separate bands." 

According to a throwback Instagram photo by Sanchez, their wedding took place in Puerto Rico. "At our wedding in Puerto Rico... of course with two of my dogs," wrote Sanchez alongside a shot of them dolled up in wedding attire. Of course, the couple has dedicated countless social media posts to each other over the years, like the time Sanchez gave Winter a lap dance on the set of E! Latin America, or when Winter posted a sweet montage of their relationship. There's also the family-centered posts where Sanchez gushed about "the beautiful" memories they're going to have with their children.
