Ciara and Russell Wilson recently commemorated a milestone in their relationship, their sixth wedding anniversary. The couple’s love story began in 2015, after they met at a Wisconsin basketball game. Shortly afterward, Ciara and Russell started dating.
A year later, in March 2016, the football player proposed to Ciara at a private beach in Seychelles. The pair ultimately got married on July 6, 2016, in a lavish ceremony at Peckforton Castle in Cheshire, England. Since that time, Ciara and Russell would welcome two children into their blended family of three.

In addition to the video, the “Level Up” vocalist expressed in the caption how much she enjoyed “doing life” with Russell. She said, “Doing life with you has been everything I’ve hoped for, dreamt of, and more. It’s the best feeling in the world waking up to you everyday.”
She added, “I’m a better woman because of you. There is absolutely nothing I wouldn’t do for you. Happy Anniversary Mi Amore. My Best Friend. I love you so much @DangeRussWilson God is Good! Year 6. Forever to Go.”
The Denver Broncos quarterback responded in the comments section by writing, “Mrs. Wilson. You have filled my heart with joy since the moment I met you. Loving you and Future, Sienna, and Win is the greatest blessing and gift ever. Cheers to Year 6. Cheers to Love. Cheers to Us. Mi Amore @Ciara.”

Not because I didn’t have the words to say, but because God answered my prayers.”
