When Grace joined her university Frisbee team in 2012, she was looking for a bit of fun. “I’ve never been sporty but I had friends doing it and I ended up really enjoying it,” she says.

They had a chat at the first training session, and Lawrence was instantly smitten with Grace. “I told my friend she was the most attractive woman I’d ever seen in my life,” he says.
