Dana Perino’s love story with Peter McMahon feels like a romantic comedy. In 1997, while boarding a flight to Chicago, she and McMahon, who were both running late, ended up sitting next to each other.

She was drawn to his British accent and noticed he wasn’t wearing a wedding ring. After the flight, they parted ways, but McMahon emailed her ten days later, leading to a life-changing decision.

Ten months later, Dana moved to England to be with him, and they married in 1998. Despite an 18-year age gap, Dana had doubts at first, but she now calls it the “best decision” she ever made. Their marriage has been strong for over 25 years, and Dana often reflects on how improbable their meeting was. Against all odds, their love story continues to thrive.
