While visiting Charleston in 2020, mechanical engineer Chapell caught the eye of John’s Island resident and real estate broker Eden on Hinge, and the two kept in touch as friends for three years. After a chance encounter at a Kenny Chesney concert at Credit One Stadium, they started dating, enjoying countless days on local beaches and concerts at the Windjammer.
