She said she met her husband who was homeless at the time outside a supermarket when she went shopping. She offered him money but he refused to accept it.
Jasmine said she proceeded into the supermarket to shop but couldn’t stop thinking about the homeless man she had just met. After shopping, Macauley offered to help her carry her shopping bags and they hit it off from there.
She said:
“Met a homeless man one day doing my food shopping. Offered him money but he wouldn’t except (sic) it…
I went inside, continued to do my shop and couldn’t stop thinking about him. I went outside and asked if I could help him anyway, he said no. He asked if I wanted help putting my shopping into a taxi, I said yes.
I asked if he wanted me to get him something to eat. He was embarrassed but he said yes and we went for some dinner.
We had a long talk about his life. I went and bought him a little phone so we could keep in contact, there was something different about him.
I got him a hotel and I went home. We kept in contact. I couldn’t stop thinking about him.”
Jasmine literally turned his life around by getting him new clothes, new teeth and asked him to move into her house.
She continued: “We went on multiple dates, eventually he shaved his beard, got new teeth and got a really good job.
“We’ve never been apart since.”
Macauley later proposed to Jasmine and they are now happily married with two children.
She added, “We are so glad our paths crossed and believe everything happens for a reason, he made my life so much better and I couldn’t imagine doing it without him now.”
