GEORGETOWN, Ky. (LEX 18) â Former University of Kentucky football player Nick Melillo met his wife Katie in 2014.
âFor me, at least, it was love at first sight,â Melillo said. âThe patience, the grace, the selflessness that she exhibited and lived out every single day is second to none.â
Their relationship blossomed beautifully. They married in 2017, and they were happy.
