Nikki Thot and Jamie Perkins’ kids – inside their life today

When blonde Jamie Perskins with blue eyes married the dark-skinned model Nikki Thot, their love story seemed like a modern fairy tale.

Together, they had two exceptionally beautiful children – but a few years ago, everything came crashing down…

How did Jamie and Nikki met

In 2009, the couple Nikki and Jamie met for the first time on an old-school social media site — MySpace. Remember that one?

At the time, 19-year-old Nikki Thot was already making waves as a popular South Sudanese-Australian model based in New York, signed with one of the biggest agencies in the world, IMG. Jamie, 25 at the time, was a cinematographer stepping into the world of music video production.

The following year, in March, they got married. In January 2016, they welcomed their first child, Ava, and their second, Zoe, arrived in March 2018.

The couple also had a dog named Louis.

Together, Nikki and Jamie quickly built up their social media presence, even starting a YouTube channel where fans could follow their journey. The channel exploded, racking up millions of followers.

”We literally fell into it. It was never a planned thing,” Jamie told Daily Mail Australia back in 2018.

Their big breakthrough came when Jamie proposed to Nikki — in a way that would go viral.

Proposing video going viral

“I wanted to propose to Nikki… and she used to watch all of those amazing proposal videos online—the ones that go viral,” Jamie shared.

“So I knew I needed to do something epic. I created a video that played in Federation Square, and Nikki sat in front of it to watch. My friend filmed it, and we uploaded it to YouTube to share with the family.”

What was supposed to be a private moment for family and friends quickly blew up, amassing 4.6 million likes.

“It went crazy. And then people in the comments wanted to know who we are—so vlogging came out of that,” Jamie said.
