Heringer, 25, gracefully exited the limo in a royal blue evening gown and shared an unexpected fact about herself with James, 29. “There’s something a little bit different about me,” she confessed. “I’m deaf. So I’m going to be reading your lips a lot tonight, but thankfully you have really beautiful lips.” Matt promised that he would “enunciate” for her and uttered, “She is gorgeous” as Abigail walked
