A couple who both have Down's syndrome have explained how they were able to go from friends to loving partners despite the Covid lockdown getting in the way.
Emily and Luke first met in August 2020 when they became friends while the country remained in lockdown, YorkshireLive reports. They spoke regularly via text and FaceTime before becoming friends on Facebook.
There was an instant spark between the duo and this eventually led to Luke asking Emily on Christmas Eve if she would be his girlfriend. She said yes.
