Jamie Perkins and Nikki Thot once seemed like a modern fairytale couple. They met on MySpace in 2009, married within a year, and built a successful life together online. With two daughters, Ava and Zoe, and a popular YouTube channel, their love story captivated millions. Jamie, a cinematographer, and Nikki, a South Sudanese-Australian model, rose to fame after their viral engagement and wedding videos. But behind the camera, things were unraveling. Nikki’s upbringing in a private, hardworking immigrant family clashed with the visibility of her new life.
Meanwhile, their interracial relationship attracted both praise and online hate. By 2019, they quietly separated, officially divorcing in 2023.
Jamie later spoke publicly about the breakdown, citing infidelity and emotional trauma. Nikki denied the claims, calling his statements hurtful and misleading.
Despite the fallout, both remain active online and devoted to co-parenting their daughters.
Though their marriage ended, their focus remains on providing a loving, stable future for their children.
