How it all began
“We put each other in the friend zone for a year before realizing there might be something more...”
— Manny
It was all business at first, but between industry talk and inside jokes, I caught myself thinking… Oh, he’s actually pretty cute.”
— Michelle
It all started on a warm evening on the iconic Croisette in Cannes, where the world of TV and film gathers for MIPTV. We were both rushing in opposite directions on our way to different events when fate (and our dear mutual friend Sagar) quite literally stopped us in our tracks.
A quick introduction turned into a promise to meet again in London… and we did. A few unforgettable dates later, what began as a chance encounter on the French Riviera grew into something much deeper.
Through laughter-filled lockdowns and countless shared moments, we became each other’s best friends, biggest supporters, and now lifelong partners.
And the rest is history
