Jamie Perkins and Nikki Thot’s love story once seemed like a modern fairy tale. Their relationship, which blossomed online, led to marriage, children, and a life in the spotlight. But after years of building their brand as a seemingly perfect couple, everything unraveled.The two first met in 2009 on MySpace. At the time, 19-year-old Nikki was making a name for herself as a South Sudanese-Australian model signed with IMG in New York, while Jamie, then 25, was working as a cinematographer in music video production. Their connection was instant, and within a year, they were married. In January 2016, their first daughter, Ava, was born, followed by Zoe in March 2018. Alongside their growing family, they had a dog named Louis,

As their relationship flourished, so did their social media presence. Their YouTube channel gained millions of followers, drawing in fans eager to watch their life unfold. According to Jamie, vlogging was never planned; it simply evolved from their viral engagement video. Wanting to make his proposal special, Jamie arranged for a video to play on a big screen in Federation Square while Nikki watched. A friend recorded her reaction, and when the video was posted online, it quickly went viral. Their wedding video achieved even greater success, reaching eight million likes. Despite their fame, Jamie emphasized that they kept much of their personal lives private, using vlogging as a way to capture memories for the future.
