She elaborated on her connection with Robert Sr. on the RHOSLC series premiere back in 2020.
"We were kind of, I would say, arranged," Mary explained in an interview on the episode. "It was kind of in my grandma's will for us to marry."
"She said, 'If anything ever happens to me, Bobby, I want you to marry one of my girls because they'll look out for you,'" Robert Sr. recounted. "We're blessed to this day because of it," Mary said.
On Season 1, Episode 3, Mary elaborated on her grandmother's request and added that she was "so glad [she] did it."
