Ralph Tresvant and Amber Tresvant

Ralph married his second wife, Amber Serrano, in 2004 during a beautiful double wedding with band-mate Ricky Bell. They met for the first time when she was just a 13 year old fan, then years later they bumped into each other once again, and this time, he just had to get her number.
