According to the singer, she and Wilson both left the date in 2015 and immediately called a friend, telling them respectively that this might be it.

“He told his friend in the elevator going down, ‘She’s the one,’ " Ciara recalled. “I called my best friend, Yolie, who’s my matron of honor, my makeup artist for 24 years — my best friend. I said, ‘Yolie, I don’t want to jinx anything, but I think…’ And she goes, ‘He’s the one?’ And I go, ‘Yes.’ "

The couple tied the knot in July 2016 and have since welcomed three children — Sienna Princess Wilson, 7, Win Harrison Wilson, 4, andAmora Princess Wilson, 10 months. Ciara is also mom to Future Zahir Wilburn, 10, whom she shares withrapper Future.
