They got married on June 5, 2020, in the presence of their loved ones. Even though it wasn’t exactly what they had planned, it was the most special day for them. However, the wedding shenanigans didn’t end there; the newlyweds had a larger ceremony in their mind.
The couple had their second marriage on April 10, 2021, in New Jersey. The bride and groom matched their attire with each other. The duo then flew to an island for their honeymoon.

It Was Love At First Sight For The Soulmates
Miller and Rizkalla met at Bowling Green State University. Scotty played football there for four years but she transferred to Rutgers University after her freshman year. So they met during her year at Bowling. To be exact, they met for the first time on Halloween.
Mrs. Miller shared how she and her roommate went around the dorms for trick and treat. When Scotty opened the door with a big 60-piece bag of candy, she fell for him at first sight. It was the same for the player too as he was fascinated by her beauty and personality.
They started going out in 2016 and were in a long-distance relationship for three years. However, they would still spend their summer and holidays together and cheer each other at their games and tournaments.
Scotty Proposed To His Wife After His NFL Selection
After dating for three years, Miller knew it was time to take things up. So, he got down on his knees weeks before he left for his first-ever NFL training camp. He was selected by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in the 2019 draft and the same year he proposed to his lover, Jenna; in July 2019.
The player invited her and her parents to his family’s lake cottage in Geneva Lake. When they went to the dock for pictures, he took his chance and asked the question right there. Of course, she said yes. The newly engaged couple announced their engagement on their Instagram. Miller’s former team, the Buccaneers also congratulated them for their new beginnings on Twitter.

Rizkalla Helped Her Husband To Be In Shape During Lockdown
When everything shut down due to coronavirus, Miller needed a quarterback to help him keep in shape. His then-fiancee offered to throw the ball to him. Ever since then, they spent their lockdown in the backyard throwing and catching the ball.
Jenna has a strong arm given that she was a college athlete, so she kept on hitting him hard while they practiced. Their little workout session helped her build up her arm strength. In fact, Miller said it was the reason he asked for marriage. In his words,“ That is actually one of the main reasons why I asked her to marry me.”
From Getting Drafted To Winning Super Bowl, Scotty’s Partner Was By His Side
Miller was drafted in the 2019 draft by the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. When he got the call, his beau was right by his side. Jenna even congratulated him through her Instagram and attended his first NFL game as well.
