“Yeah, we got married. We made it official. We got engaged first, and then we eloped and made it official, man.”
Henderson didn’t reveal exactly when they got married.
“I’ve been growing as a husband and learning the beauty of marriage,” he said. “The Lord is still working on my heart. It’s been great so far being married.”
Henderson explained that the pair have been together for three years after he messaged her on TikTok during his sophomore year at Ohio State.

“Eventually she got baptized and we both fully surrounded our lives to Christ and been honoring the Lord in our relationship,” he said. “We’ve been together for almost three years now. I met her my sophomore year [at Ohio State] at the time of my injury.
“I remember searching so hard for a girlfriend then because at the time I was trying to turn my life around. I really wanted to be committed to one girl … I remember saying a prayer.”
Henderson announced their engagement in an Instagram post on Sept. 9, 2025.
