How did Askale Davis and Dre Davis meet?

In an Instagram post, Askale revealed that the couple began dating in 2015, although the earliest picture of the couple dates back to 2012 on her profile. So, it looks like they knew each other for quite a while before they began dating. Askale revealed a few details about her first date with Dre in a beautiful post on the occasion of their sixth anniversary of their first date. She wrote, "03.05.15 Dre & I’s dating anniversary 🥰 I can’t believe it’s been six whole years since Dre & I started dating. I still remember the picture on the left like it was yesterday. Dre had a few days off in between his tour dates so he flew in to take me out. We ended up missing our restaurant reservations so we decided to hit up a local late night restaurant for dinner. I remember being so excited and nervous at the same time. I mean I knew we meshed well as friends but how would we be as lovers? Well based on the second picture, I guess we ended up meshing very well. 😝"

Dre has two children from a previous relationship, and two children with Askale, The couple managed to blend their families really well and seem to share a great relationship with each other. On the occasion of National Son Day and National Daughter Day, Askale penned down a touching note about her relationship with her 'bonus babies'. "I was always the type of woman who said “I’m never going to date a man w/ kids.” Not only was that ingrained in my head, but it was also made very clear how frowned upon that was within my own family & culture. I remember being in the beginning stages of Dre & I dating & thinking to myself “if this goes any further, how am I going to explain this to my parents & family & what will everyone think?” The anxiety that came along with the potential judgment from my family & community killed me. I remember bringing it up to someone very close to me & their response being “don’t you want to experience all of your big milestones such as your wedding day & childbirth for the first time with your lifelong partner?”

"I’d be lying if I said that comment didn’t crush me. Until one day, God spoke to me & said follow your heart b/c what you see as a non-negotiable or roadblock may actually be a unexpected blessing. That message instantly transformed my mindset & outlook. From that day on, I made a conscious decision to lean all the way into the relationship & keep an open mind when it came to our children. That decision was one of the best things I could’ve done. Since my very first encounter with my bonus babies, Bleu & River they have been a true blessing to my life. They’ve been such a source of unconditional love & light & I’m so thankful that God chose me to be a receiver of all that they have to offer. I truly can’t express how blessed I feel to have them in my life. Not only in my life but my entire family has embraced them as well. My parents, brother, cousins, we’re all just one big happy blended family. I owe this in part to their biological mother & Dre who did an amazing job of instilling core values into them prior to my arrival & for moving forward so maturely (no baby mama drama here 🤣). Moral of the story, don’t block your blessing b/c you’re too worried about what others may think. ❣️." she concluded.

We can't wait to see Askale and hopefully get a peek at her family on 'RHOP'.

'Real Housewives of Potomac' Season 6 airs every Sunday at 8/7c on Bravo.
