Carson Beck’s Prep Work for Dating One of the Cavinder Twins Is Surprisingly Relatable
Georgia Bulldogs quarterback Carson Beck has managed to achieve something many others have failed at: successfully telling Haley and Hanna Cavinder apart. The twins, basketball stars for the University of Miami and social media sensations, are famously identical—and even their own fans sometimes struggle to distinguish between the two.
But Beck wasn’t taking any chances when it came to dating Hanna Cavinder (yes, it’s Hanna—confirmed!). According to the twins, Beck took a rather creative approach to ensure he wouldn’t mix them up.
“He told me he was studying pictures with his mom before meeting me,” Hanna revealed during a recent Q&A session the Cavinder sisters shared online. The segment, part of a “Get Ready With Me” video, featured the twins discussing pet peeves—including, unsurprisingly, how often people confuse them.
Haley chimed in, jokingly adding, “Sorry to blast that, Carson.” But the strategy clearly worked—Hanna admitted Beck has yet to call her by the wrong name.
Twin Trouble: A Universal Struggle
That’s because, while it may appear to be quite inconsequential to be constantly called your sibling’s name by strangers and even relatives alike, for identical twins such as the Cavinders it has become the norm of the day. Some may say that it is something that comes with being a twin; however, the Cavinders are certainly not going to let this one go.
Beck’s proactive preparation stands in stark contrast to Haley’s boyfriend, Dallas Cowboys tight end Jake Ferguson. Haley recounted an awkward first encounter with Ferguson:
“I got to his place, and we were watching a movie. He was super polite, but then he looks at me and says, ‘Hanna.’ I just ignored it because it made me so uncomfortable.”
While Ferguson’s mistake might have been forgivable, the Cavinder twins couldn’t help but compare the two approaches. Beck’s flashcard-like method seems to have set a high bar for dating twins.
Why Beck’s Method Matters
Beck’s effort isn’t just a funny anecdote—it’s a lesson in thoughtfulness. By taking the time to study photos and distinguish between the sisters, he demonstrated genuine interest and respect for Hanna. It’s a small gesture that likely meant a lot to her.
In a world where people often dismiss twins’ frustrations about being mixed up, Beck’s attention to detail is refreshing. It shows that sometimes, a little extra effort goes a long way in building relationships—even if it involves a little help from your mom and some flashcard-style prep work.
A Playful Reminder for Jake Ferguson
As for Ferguson, perhaps he could take a page from Beck’s playbook. Flashcards might seem a bit over-the-top, but as the Cavinders have proven, it’s the little things that count.
So, Jake, next time you’re preparing to hang out with Haley, maybe brush up on those identifiers. The Cavinders—and their fans—are watching.
