17-year gap, different countries & cultures—no one thought we’d make it. But love proved everyone wrong!
You decide who wins $20,000 and appears in Variety magazine as America’s Favorite Couple
We met at the Duplex in NYC, danced through the West Village, and felt instant chemistry. Johanne fell hard, but Danielle thought she was too young and wasn’t ready to settle down. Still, she always found her way back. Johanne never gave up, proving love knows no age. When Johanne’s visa expired, we faced separation—until Danielle flew to France, asked her parents’ blessing, and proposed in Taormina, Italy. We married a few months later!
What is your favorite memory you've shared as a couple?Danielle once asked Johanne to give up on motherhood to be together—and Johanne did, without ever pressuring or asking again. Then, six years later, Danielle surprised her with the most magical words: “Let’s have a baby.” In 2023, we welcomed our son into the world. He’s the sweetest, most incredible blessing we never saw coming.
What would you do with $20,000?Time to slow down and be present during these precious early years with our son. A chance to visit family overseas so he can connect with his roots, and to start saving for his future—whether it’s school, art, or adventure. In a world that moves too fast, this is our way of investing in what truly matters: love, time, and unforgettable memories.
