Daniella Monet Actually Stood Up Her Now Fiance Andrew Gardner When They First Started Dating

Daniella Monet and Andrew Gardner just got engaged over the holiday season and it almost wouldn’t have happened at all if Daniella kept standing him up.

In a new interview with ET, the former Victorious actress admitted that after being set up by one of her good friends, it took a while for them to actually meet.

Daniella shared that after talking on Facebook, they decided to meet, however…”I actually stood him up a couple times because I was nervous to meet him. I’m so lucky I didn’t blow it.”

“After dating for a while, he later told me that when he saw a picture of me on Facebook, he had a feeling I was special,” she adds. “He’s one of the strongest, most level-headed men I know. He knows what he wants, and he’s not afraid of a challenge. It’s so cliche, but I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.”
