“That first time we met, she listened and shared and normalized the experience and feelings I was going through, but we never turned on the microphones because I was still a bit of a mess,” Dave explained in an Instagram post.
After that, they exchanged texts and voice messages before Dave took the courage to ask Heidi to a dinner date.
“It was that early point where you don’t know what you are or what you’re doing,” Dave further explained in the post.
“I mean, I hadn’t been on a date in 20 years, and I wasn’t totally sure that this was one when she walked through the door. So, we sat on this couch and talked for about three hours.”

The couple announced their decision to separate after being together for nearly 10 years in a joint statement in May 2020. They share a son, named Cash, and daughter Ruby.
