Bella Kalolo-Suraj had been single for six years when she decided to join a dating app to take a peek at what potential love interests might be out there.
She hated it. Turns out, the online talent liked to send her, well, a barrage of photos of what they considered their best anatomical feature.
But before she deleted the app, she noted the Instagram handle of one man who caught her attention for looking “wholesome and a little goofy”. He was wearing a shark t-shirt that read “Jawsome” while comically posing on tree trunks in an open forest.
At 1.30am, Bella summoned the courage and slid into his DMs. That was in October 2020. Just four months later, they were married.
Today as they share their whirlwind love story with the over lunch, talented singer and actor Bella – who plays fiery nurse Selina To’a– and her personal trainer husband Suraj Kumar, were obviously meant to be.
