He went down on his knee to present a custom ring made by And AL The Jeweler. Washburn described the proposal to be picture perfect as snowy mountains surrounded them and she couldn’t resist saying yes. A few months after their engagement, the couple welcomed their daughter Ella into their lives who is around a year old now. The family grew, and the two decided to make their relationship formal this year.
While Maxx Crosby is appearing as one of the league’s best players, he credits his success to his wife who stayed with him during the tough days and helped him overcome alcohol addiction. Washburn who was a four-year starter for the Eastern Michigan University’s soccer team majored in sports management and is currently helping his husband’s merchandise brand, “Mad Maxx Merch”.
