Ben Napier and Erin Napier have been together for more than 20 years, but she had her eye on him for a long time before they actually started dating. The couple met while attending Jones County Junior College in 2004.
Although they were aware of each other before they officially met, the pair’s romance didn’t begin until after Erin interviewed Ben for the college newspaper. In a December 6 Instagram post, the first in her annual “Love Week” series, she reflected on how she nearly lost her chance before they got together.
