Did Joe and Mag/dna ever actually MEET prior to this? And did they really meet through a friend?

I just saw the story is that they met on a phone call on video chat when a mutual friend (?) was driving Magda around (?) and passed her the phone when he was talking to Joe. He's over 10 years older then her, living in a different country and hardly a jetsetter so who was this friend and why are they never mentioned again? So they started talking on the phone but never actually met until the show? That makes it even weirder that she was wearing an engagement ring, quit her job, and was angry at him for not being "faithful." Their meet story sounds so random/ vague, I wonder if they actually met on some kind of mail order bride or sugar baby website neither of them wanted to admit being on. I mean the super posed pictures she shared of him standing with a Rolls and wearing a Louis Vuitton logo shirt (AHAHAHAHAH) are not casual shots, they are the sort of thing you put on a dating website. So maybe that's why she expected marriage-- she is just reallly young and naive. If she is 23 now, was she a teenager when she moved to Germany? I hate that I have to side with this fkboy who probably thinks there is a city in Italy called Baloney, but he's not wrong that she needs to slow down.
