    "I was scrolling through my feed, and one of my friends and someone who was a friend had this video of the two of them, like a Snapchat," he said.

    Meghan recalled: "I said, 'Who's that?'" she remembered. "I asked if I could see his feed. That, to me, was the best barometer." 

    She added: "So I went through, and it was just like beautiful photography and all these environmental shots and this time he was spending in Africa."
