Joanna Gaines wasn't sure when she first went on a date with Chip if things would move forward. "It wasn't love at first sight for Chip and me. For one thing, I was typically attracted to guys who were more on the quiet side," she said (via People).
In their joint memoir, "The Magnolia Story," Joanna revealed Chip was actually 90 minutes late to that first date. "I still don't remember what he said that convinced me to walk out the door with him," she recalled (via Parade).
But Joanna came around to Chip's big personality, and they got married in 2003. That didn't mean it was an easy happily ever after fairytale though — as no marriage really is — because of their differing personalities. "Early on we had our fair share of fights and figuring out where the boundaries were," Joanna told People. "He's good at the big picture, and he's good at risk. I like the details."
