Nick Sharma and Carrie Ou Yeung met online, fell in love, and now create digital content together, making the internet both the heart of their love story and their workplace. Nick, who is Indian, and Carrie, from Hong Kong, navigate their relationship under the ever-watchful eyes of the Asian diaspora, both online and offline. But how does one continue to love amidst constant commentary topped with cultural and linguistic differences? Suhayla Sharif from SBS Spice finds out.


From meet-cutes to marriage, we often get a front-row seat to the ups and downs of relationships when couples share their love stories online. But under the intense scrutiny of the internet, how much can love truly conquer?

Nick Sharma and Carrie Ou Yeung have captivated an audience that adores their relationship, as they share their adventures and everyday moments. Despite facing criticism from those who believe they should remain worlds apart, their videos build bridges, offering hope to other couples like them.

Cultural difference shouldn't be a barrier, it should be an opportunity to grow. We interact with so many different people, you can get close friends from all around the world, so why should you limit your dating to your own race?
Carrie Ou Yeung
In an exclusive interview with host Suhayla Sharif, Nick and Carrie share their journey, revealing the highs and lows of navigating the digital world as an interracial couple.
If you're in love, it doesn't matter what race you're dating. I think your priority should be that love rather than what race or country they are from. We focus on our love.
Nick Sharma
They discuss the challenges they face, from constant commentary to cultural differences, and how they try to transform the internet from a place of criticism and skepticism into a platform for love, understanding, and connection.
