It's time for an update from our favourite reality TV couple, Minh Thu and Truc Nhu from The Bachelor Vietnam.

The pair made headlines around the world last year when, during a rose ceremony, eliminated contestant Thu asked fellow contestant Nhu to leave the show to be with her.

“I went into this competition to find love,” Thu told the Bachelor.

“I’ve found that love for myself. But it isn’t you. It’s someone else.”
Six months on, the couple are still together and enjoying their time travelling the world, appearing at local Pride festivals, and sharing their journey on social media - using super sweet captions including “Can we grow old together?”

On Valentine's Day, the lovebirds exchanged flowers and gifts, writing: “Spend all your time, effort and love preserving what is yours.”

I mean, just look at them:
Upon going public with their love following The Bachelor, the couple were celebrated by members of the LGBTIQ+ community in Vietnam, where same-sex weddings were legalised in 2015, despite not being officially recognised by the government.
