How did Buffy meet Michael?
There’s nothing known about this lady except the fact that she loves doing charity work. Not only that, but she also worked as a model and a jewelry advertiser back in her youth days. Having graduated from the University of North Carolina in 1989, Buffy takes a deep interest in software development as well as technology-related stuff. She met Michael for the chart time at the NASCAR event, and both of them caught eyes with each other in the first meeting. Since then, the two started hanging out with each other and began to enjoy each other’s company. Like any other typical love story, Buffy didn’t say “yes” to Michael after hanging out with him one or two times. It took him months to pursue her and get into a relationship with her. Buffy didn’t take much longer to decide to tie the knot with Michael. The two started dating each other in August 1992. And, got married after almost a year, on November 27, 1993. However, there is one incident that brought the two together. In fact, that’s the only incident that made Buffy come to a conclusion that Michael is the one for him and decided to marry him.

The two were seen together several times at the NASCAR events. Everything was going well until the two started making fewer public appearances together. Buffy was seldom seen in the stands cheering for Michael. And, Michael was barely seen with Buffy by the paparazzi. This is when the fans began to doubt their relationship. As the two sold their house, fans were confirmed that something is not right between the two. The couple managed to keep this secret from the people for long. But, they couldn’t handle being the topic of discussions and putting up a facade in every social gathering. Therefore, they made it public in 2010, that they aren’t together anymore. After spending their lives together for almost 17 years happily, they confirmed the divorce. This came out as a shock to many. Since then, fans have been digging into their personal lives to know the reason that led to their divorce. Neither Michael nor Buffy has uttered the reason behind this.
