'I was staying in L.A,' he told the magazine. 'Jill walked past me at the hotel pool, and I introduced myself.
'She had a really strong handshake. If that had been it between us, just that moment, I would've thought about it for the rest of my life.'
The Will & Grace star also said that Jill also immediately knew that he was the one for her.
He told GQ, 'What's really funny is that [Jill] called her mom that night and said, "I met the guy I'm going to marry." Of course she didn't let me know.'
The two, who both hail from Texas, tied the knot on April 16, 1994 in New Orleans.
Family: Together they have three daughters, Georgia, 25, Sara Kate, 24, and Charlotte, 19
Over the years, the Hope Floats actor has frequently talked about the pair's enduring love for each other.
'I married my best friend and I married a woman who I look up to infinitely,' the 52-year-old crooner told Us Weekly in 2019. 'We have the same values so it's easy for us to try and impart those on our children.'
Together they have three daughters, Georgia, 25, Sara Kate, 24, and Charlotte, 19.
Along with iconic models such as Stephanie Seymour and Frederique, Jill starred in the early Victoria's Secret catalog campaigns in the 1980s and helped grown the lingerie company into a global brand.
She is often seen by Harry's side at public events. When he got his star on the walk of fame in 2019, she supported him along with their daughters.
In 2012 they were faced with a big battle when she was diagnosed with breast cancer.
'I remember what you said to me. I was working down there and I was waiting for the call and you were crying and you said, I have it, and I lost it,' he told his wife when she visited his talk show in 2017.
'You were probably stronger than I was, I think. You set the tone for how we were going to deal with it,' he said on the show. 'I am so in awe of your bravery.'
'It was the worst feeling of helplessness I've ever had.'
After two surgeries and radiation, Jill has remained cancer-free for almost 10 years.
