David admitted to having a crush on her during their time in high school

David stated in a video with Delish that he once had a crush on Natalie. The duo first met in their hometown of Vernon Hills, Illinois, and in freshman year of high school, they went to prom together. David said in the video:
“I was trying to tell you how pretty you looked in your dress the day afterwards, but I was so scared of doing it so I never did it and I’m so so happy I never did. It would’ve made things really really awkward… You would have thrown up probably. You would have thrown up on my face.”
Natalie and David went different ways after he moved to L.A. to pursue his social media career while Natalie stayed in Illinois to complete her studies. The pair reunited after David asked Natalie to become his assistant. According to a December 2019 post by Jason Nash, Natalie needed some convincing before she took the job:
“Happy Birthday Nat! It’s so great working with you and watching you grow into a powerhouse. I remember when he had to convince you to take the job and I’m sure there are moments when you wished you trusted your first instinct.”
