- I like how the microphone's always on your side now,
because I'm so much louder than you.
(upbeat music)
Hi guys, I'm Stevie, and this is my wife Josie,
and we've been telling our relationship story.
(air whooshing) Is this part seven?
- No, this is part three.
- Oh, anyway, if you weren't here for the first seven parts,
then you can watch this quick synopsis.
(air whooshing) - Picture the scene.
We're at the ExCeL Center.
(record scratching)
Conventions. - We met at a,
we met at a YouTube convention.
- How cliche, it went from, like, flirting
to like, oh, we like each other,
just through those texts, somehow, it was very weird, like-
- Yeah, having to leave.
It's crazy what, like, having to leave each other will do.
(foot tapping on wood)
You guys back yet?
(upbeat music) Anyway, so where we
left off last time, where were we?
Anyway, so where we left off was
you stood me up for Charli XCX, right?
- Yeah, you had just got a flight to London,
where I was living, and you thought I was gonna
spend the first night with you.
- I didn't think that you would
spend the first night with me.
I thought, she likes me, so of course she will.
Like, there's no world in which she won't come and see me
in my hotel room when I arrive.
- But, I had more important things to do at the time.
- Right.
- Which was see Charli XCX.
♪ I love it ♪
- I feel like the whole beginning of our relationship
is just you constantly doing normal things,
that I'm taking as like-
- No's. - Like, how dare you?
- Yeah. - You know what I mean?
Is it normal to deny going on a date
with someone to Paris because you have work?
Is that normal?
- You could have been a serial killer for all I knew.
- I mean, I think you guys should answer that question.
Is it normal to meet someone,
you're attracted to them, you're into them,
and then they ask you to go to Paris on a first date,
and you say no, because you have work?
Like, is that normal?
Is that like?
(upbeat music) - I'd probably say yes now.
(static humming) Hmm, maybe.
I did want to see you, but I had already prepared
this evening with my friends, you know?
And I couldn't let them down.
- I know, I'm kidding, it's fine.
Also, I didn't expect her to skip the concert,
but I did think that she was gonna come over
after the concert, you know?
But like, I don't go to concerts,
so how am I supposed to know how exhausting that is,
you know? - Yeah, also
you had literally moved hotels because I said that your
hotel was too far- - Yeah,
because Gatwick Airport is apparently really far away,
which I didn't know, I thought it was like,
it's in London, so how far away could it be?
So I just got like a hotel near Gatwick
and then she was like, that's really far away.
I have no idea about how I'm gonna get to you.
And I was like, what?
So then I moved to, like, where did I move to?
Soho or something?
Anyway, thank goodness that Elle Mills and Sammy were there,
so that I could hang out with them that night
and talk sh*t on you.
- Yeah. - Anyway, she made up
for it because the next day she showed up to my hotel,
wearing a headband that had
(air whooshing) these little springs
on the top and they were pumpkins.
(air whooshing) - It was Halloween.
- It was adorable.
- I remember like being in the taxi
on the way to your hotel,
and they were just like bouncing around,
like over every bump, like this.
And I remember like, feeling very confident about them.
And then, as soon as I got out of the Uber,
and started walking into the hotel lobby,
I was overcome with regret.
Like, I was like, what have I done?
This is so embarrassing, I'm such a loser.
Oh my God, should I take them off?
- Did I immediately, like, point them out,
or did I just- - No, I think
I had to point them out.
You were just, like, acting all cool, you know,
you were just like- - I was acting actually cool?
- Yeah, you were like, "Hey, what's up?"
You know, you were really cool.
- I'm not cool anymore?
- No, not to me. (laughing)
Like, before you were very, like, oh,
with your sunglasses, and you're like, L.A., you know.
- Come on, it's L.A.
(upbeat music)
- Okay, how 'bout now?
- You did get instantly cooler just now.
- Did I? - Yeah.
- Okay, I'll start wearing glasses more
so that my wife thinks I'm cool.
Yeah, man, like who cares?
- Yeah, you gotta be like flirty as well.
(funky music) - Oh, yeah, man.
Who cares? - Oh my gosh.
(Stevie laughing)
- She arrives wearing the cutest little pumpkin bobbleheads
on her head and I was like, she's adorable.
And then she was like,
"So, my sister's in town with her girlfriend
and I've never met her girlfriend.
Do you wanna come with me to meet up with them?"
And I was like, (scoffing)
I'm already meeting the family
(Josie laughing) on the first date.
- And, I didn't even think of it like that.
I was just like, well, obviously my sister's in town,
so why would I not go and see her?
- Yeah, so we went to this place called
"The Cereal Killer Cafe," which only served cereal.
Look at this bitch.
Basically, though, we weren't even a couple yet.
Like, we hadn't even kissed at this point,
but we decided to dress up as a couple.
- Yeah, we had a couple's costume planned.
- Yeah. - For the Halloween party.
- And I had done all this research about, like,
because she wanted to be Hunter Schafer.
So, all these, not Hunter Schafer, you wanted to be Jules.
- Yes. - And, I looked up
like all the makeup that she wore on Halloween
and all of that.
- Yeah, you literally spent like hundreds of pounds.
- No, I didn't. - You told me
that you were, like, spent loads of money on the makeup.
- I had to get like a whole suit,
like a fricking cumberbund.
- So, we spent the day in Camden.
- Yes. - And then,
we went back to your hotel.
It was like a tiny little room as well.
- Yeah. - Do you remember how
small it was? - Yeah, 'cause I had to
pay for two hotels at this point.
So, I couldn't get a big one, I had to get a tiny one.
I mean, it's also London, so.
- It was a beautiful hotel, though.
- It was really cute, yeah.
- We went and got ready together
and, like, I have my little suitcase
'cause I was staying the night with you at the hotel.
- Really, did I ask you to?
- Yeah, you asked me to.
- She didn't invite me to stay at hers, by the way.
- I couldn't- - She was fully
playing hard to get- - No, it wasn't that.
It was that I couldn't risk, like,
having you stuck in my house
if, like, we weren't getting along.
(Stevie laughing)
What if, like, we kissed and we were like,
mm, no, I'm not feeling that.
It was like, I don't want it to be awkward
if this is not a thing.
Also, like, I thought you were like
(peaceful music) mega rich anyways, I was like-
- Well, come to find out. (laughing)
- God damn it! - I really was a catfish,
wasn't I, I was just like,
to you, this was me.
(peaceful music) Hey girl, I'm really rich.
- (laughing) Yeah.
- We're getting ready in the room.
- Yeah. - You have your
hair curly for the first time.
- Yeah. - So you can be like Rue and-
- Yeah, I was trying to have it up.
- That was the start of
your curly hair, actually. - Yeah, I didn't
blow dry it out, and that's when I was like,
hang on a minute, I think my hair is actually curly.
- It instantly just went
like into beautiful curls. - Bloop!
- And then- - And then I was like, okay,
time to do your makeup.
- Yes. - And then I showed you
all the glittery things I got.
- Yeah. - And I basically glued-
- Gold leaf. - Gold leaf to her face.
- It was, like, one of the most intimate moments
we've had though, you doing my makeup.
Because, we were like- - Yeah, we hadn't kissed yet,
and I was like- - Yeah, you were literally,
we were literally like this and I was like-
- And I was just like, wow, it looks so good.
- Yeah, you were literally just like in my face
like this, and we still didn't kiss.
- No. - So then-
- I wasn't even thinking about kissing you.
I was just like, I have to do it.
(Josie laughing) I am an artist.
So then we went to the party.
- We went to the party. - We brought your sister
and her girlfriend with us.
- Yes. - I had so much fun
lying to everyone.
- Yeah, you were like, "We met on Tinder
and I just thought I'd fly over here for
this Halloween party." (Stevie laughing)
- Yeah, so it was a really cool Halloween party.
It was so decorated.
- Yeah. - It was really fun.
No one knew who we were 'cause no one had seen "Euphoria".
- Yeah, we were like
trendsetters. - I was like,
are you kidding me?
- But, Orla came as a nun and we were like,
oh you're like Kat. (Stevie laughing)
- That was great.
- So it got to like midnight, and you were like,
it's midnight, we must leave the ball.
- Yes, or I was gonna turn into a pumpkin.
- You said, "Should we get outta here?"
- Did I? - Yeah, in the
very smooth way. - Oh, that's
really smooth. - And I was like,
yes, we left, yes?
- You wanna get outta here?
- (laughing) Stop it. (electronic beeping)
- Are you blushing, oh my God!
You're actually blushing.
- Yeah, I am. (electronic beeping)
- So, thank you so much to-
- Eve and Adam.
- No. - What?
- Nope. - Adam and Eve.

Wait, where were we?
Yeah, then what happened?
- So then we went back to your hotel.
We ordered food.
- Yeah, oh yeah, we got these noodle dishes delivered.
We were just slurping noodles in my bed.
And then I put on some Chapstick and she was like,
"Oh, that smells really good."
And I was like, oh my God,
I can't believe I'm telling this, this is so cringe.
(Josie laughing) She was like,
"That smells really good."
And I was like, "Yeah, it tastes good too.
Do you wanna taste it?" And she was like, "Yeah."
And then I kissed her. (laughing)
- And that was our first kiss.
- That is so cringe.
- And, to this day, that Chapstick,
you always keep some in a certain coat pocket.
- Yeah, sometimes I'll put it on and then I kiss her
and then it takes like 10 seconds,
and she'll be like, "Wow!"
- Yeah, and it takes me right back,
and I remember. - Yeah, should I get it
so I can show them what it is?
Can you guys see it, can you see it?
Anyway, it is Chapstick Total Hydration
Vitamin Enriched Lip Oil, peach tea flavor.
(lips smacking)
- It's nice, anyway.
- So then-
(both laughing)
- Then the next day.
- That was the first time we (beep).
- Stop it, we take our makeup off.
- Yeah. - And, my-
- And she's a leopard. - My, the gold leaf,
or whatever she applied it with,
I was obviously allergic to.
- It was latex glue.
- Literally like leopard print all over the sides
of my face. - It looked really cool,
to be honest. - It didn't hurt.
It just, I was scared that I was gonna have
leopard print skin forever.
(Stevie laughing) 'Cause it was like,
like it was scarred,
but it went away after like two days, didn't it?
- But that's crazy, two days.
- Yeah, we spent some more time together that trip.
- Yeah, and then you were like,
"Do you wanna come to mine?"
So then I checked out of my hotel
and then I stayed with you.
What ya doing?
- Why?
We never like said, "So, are we dating", at any point.
- Yeah, all of November and December,
just every time we would talk, I'd like interrogate you.
I'd be like, take this personality quiz.
- (laughing) Yeah. - Tell me this.
Tell me about all your childhood trauma.
I was trying to figure out
if we were like life partner compatible.
- Right, 'cause I was gonna say like,
I feel like when we first met in 2018,
you'd already realized that we were compatible.
- No, I just told you that Cancer and Capricorn
should be together, that's not real.
(sad music) - Whatever, it was real to me.
(upbeat music) Let's fast forward
to the next time we saw each other.
So then, we're in like a long distance
relationship. - Yeah, so then
I go back to L.A.
- Yeah, we're in a long distance relationship.
You asked me to meet you halfway in New York in December.
And, I was like, "God." - No, no, no, wait.
- What? - We forgot.
- What? - The next day
after Halloween, you had to go to work,
and I sent you flowers. (air whooshing)
- Yes you did.
(air whooshing) You sent flowers
to my work and the note,
(air whooshing) what did the note say?
Hope this makes you blush,
something like that. - Oh cute.
- Yeah, so we're in New York. - Yes.
- We have a nice Airbnb together.
- Yes, and it has a hot tub.
- Mm-hmm, you take me to an event.
- Yes, influencer events, remember those?
- An influencer event, we go to a Korean spa together.
- Oh yeah!
- We get a couples' body scrub.
- Oh my God.
- Which, by the way, hurt. (Stevie laughing)
- We got to see each other in a city
that neither of us live in,
so it felt like we were on vacation together.
- Yes, and then the next time we see each other,
I come to L.A. in January for my birthday.
I stay at yours, well, you've already moved out
of your L.A. house at this point.
- This is, like, such like a modern love story, isn't it?
Like, we're in like
(birds chirping) Los Angeles,
(car engines running) in New York and London.
Like, what the, this is so wild.
I can't believe this is our story.
- You've moved out of your house at this point.
You've had a garage sale, all your friends have helped you
sell all of your things. - Garage sale.
- You've given out free bottles of lube
to all of your customers. - Yeah, so I fully sold
all of my sh*t, anything that couldn't fit in two suitcases.
I sold it all, I basically was like,
I want to spend like half of my time in 2020 in London
with Josie and then go and visit a bunch of different
European countries that I'd never been to.
- You basically wanted to be closer to me.
- Yes, and I was gonna use London as like my home base.
So, I moved in with a friend, Hazel, into her guest room.
So, I landed January 27th and I got a text from my friend
who was like, "So there's this thing called
coronavirus, you're probably fine.
It's the early stages, but just wanted to let you know.
They're saying it might be airborne,
blah, blah, blah, blah, blah."
And I was like, literally, as soon as I landed
at the end of January is when I found out about coronavirus.
- Mm-hmm, that was terrifying.
- Ugh, how long was it, maybe like five weeks
that I was in London before- - Like living the life.
- I don't know about that.
I was like- - I mean, actually
you were complaining constantly,
but you still complain now every day.
- I was like, it's so cold here, how do tubes work?
Why is there stairs everywhere?
- I enjoyed having you there.
- Oh yeah, it was fun because Josie would get off work
and I would cook dinner.
She would stay over and then commute an hour to work
because where I was staying was so far away from her.
(Stevie laughing) - I was so mad.
I was so mad, we didn't live together,
but, like, I was staying at yours and Hazel's, like,
basically all the time.
- Yeah. - We went like food shopping
together and things like that for the first time.
So, it was quite cute.
- Yeah. - February comes round
and we're like, okay, it's Valentine's Day.
Let's go to Blackpool so you can meet all my family.
- And I was like, I love Blackpool.
That's one of my favorite places in the UK, let's go.
- We exchanged
Valentine's Day cards. (knuckles popping)
- Yeah. - And you had written in it
that you love me, and that,
you said "I love you" for the first time.
- Yeah. - And so then-
- And then you started crying.
- I started crying and I said, "I love you too".
- On a train, and she told me
that was the most embarrassing thing I could have done.
- Honestly, and then we had a nice date for Valentine's Day
in Blackpool, the beach house.
- Oh yeah, we went to this place on the beach
and it said like, live saxophone player.
So we go and this guy-
(both laughing)
He looked maybe like 20 years old.
- Yeah. - And like, wearing
the head to toe Ed Hardy, and there was like,
(imitating upbeat music) like techno remixes
of pop songs playing on the speakers.
And he was playing saxophone over it.
- Yeah, like alongside it. - It was hilarious
and wonderful. - It was brilliant, honestly.
- I loved it, I was like, well, I wanna propose to her,
but we have to do it in Paris.
Like, that'll just like be the full circle
of our story. - It would be hilarious.
- Right, like I have to go to Paris
because she told me no about going to Paris.
I got rings.
(air whooshing) And then went to book
a flight to Paris
(air whooshing) and then COVID was
really kicking off.
It ended up being nice because I didn't know you
that well yet, or I didn't understand Britishness
or whatever yet, so I would've done some crazy sh*t
that you would've been, you would've hated,
like in front- - Like a flash mob.
- Yeah, like a flash mob,
or done it in front of, like, so many people or something.
- I would literally be dying.
- Yeah, so I'm glad that it happened how it did.
So I just, we were just talking in bed one night.
- We were literally in bed.
- Yeah and I pulled out a ring and asked her to marry me.
- And I rolled onto the floor.
- Did you? - Yeah.
- Why? - 'Cause I was just excited
and nervous. - Oh right,
you did your whole thing where you hide your face.
- Yeah. - So then to celebrate,
we went to a hotel in east London
that had like a spa in it or whatever.
And that was the last time we went outside.
Like March 10th, before the lockdowns happened.
Well, at this point, from like when I landed,
like my anxiety about it was like just ramping up.
It just like went, just started going up.
I was like buying life straws.
I was, like, doomsday prepping, hardcore.
- And then you were like,
"Is there anything that you would like
if we can't get our hands on things for awhile?"
And I was like, "Biscuits, please."
(Stevie laughing) So you bought
(air whooshing) a McVitie's multi pack.
(air whooshing) - Ah!
- And Hazel was like, that I approve of.
- Oh my God, I was like, "Where can we go, Josie?"
Like, we need to go somewhere.
Like, in the middle of nowhere
where we don't have to, like, breathe the air
of other people.
You were like, "We can move in with my sister",
like a week before lockdown started.
But then we got here.
- And we never left. - And then lockdown happened.
We were bleaching our groceries, like everybody else.
And, we are engaged and in lockdown,
and have no idea how we're gonna have a wedding.
- Before we came to Blackpool,
we were starting to, like, make our guest list and stuff.
- Yeah. - In London.
- That's cute.
- Anyway, we should tell that another time, I think.
- Yeah, so next time.
- We'll tell you about our wedding slash marriage slash
everything. - Oh, that is a wild story.
