Joey Called His Wife the 'Most Important Woman' in His Life

They reconnected after Johnny's injury and quickly fell in love. The veteran has paid tribute to his wife, posting a sweet photo of Meg with their daughter on Instagram, captioned:

"These are the two most important women in my life. I haven't been there for them enough, sometimes it feels like at all. They say it's never too late too to fix something or make a change. I hope that's true."

Like many men with a mission, Johnny knows that his dedication to his cause is a cost also borne by his family, but Meg seems to be a staunch supporter.
