How did Crystal Kung Minkoff and Rob Minkoff meet?
Crystal, 20 at the time, met Rob at one of his company parties in 2003.
He was practicing his piano when a buddy recommended her to network with him about a career.
Crystal’s buddy told her, “That’s the director of Lion King… maybe he’ll hire you,”
leading her toward Rob, who was at the piano.
While that didn’t happen, the two talked about their dreams for family life
and global travel while singing Sinatra all night.
Rob asked Crystal on their first date to the Finding Nemo premiere after they first met.
As the credits began to roll, the couple joined hands and sang along to Bobby Darin’s ‘Beyond the Sea.’
After three years of dating, in 2006,
the director got down on one knee and ultimately popped the
question in front of a table decorated in roses, and a diamond ring, at a restaurant in Beverly Hills.
The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star apparently continually
implored Rob not to pop the question in public or on Valentine’s Day.
Rob said he might not have been paying attention, according to Grace Ormonde Wedding Style.
Although it might not have been what she asked, Crystal said it was still amazing to be surprised.
