Amid Melbourne's sixth lockdown in 2021, Jens Radda found himself yearning for connection. Following an Instagram account of a drag performer named Iva Rosebud, a mutual friend suggested a collaboration, leading Jens to meet Lachie, a potential kindred spirit.

Invited for morning mimosas in the park, Jens sensed a connection with Lachie right away. Despite initial reservations about Lachie's cool demeanor, their shared interests in jazz, movies, and theater sparked engaging conversations.

As their bond deepened over weeks of quality time together, Jens sought reassurance from a mutual friend, Chris, who vouched for Lachie's sincerity and romantic nature. Encouraged by Chris's words, Jens embraced the relationship wholeheartedly.

Fast forward three and a half years, Jens and Lachie have built a beautiful life together in Melbourne, sharing a passion for drag performances, co-parenting a puppy, and nurturing their garden. Lachie's continued gestures of love, including bringing flowers, reaffirm Jens's initial intuition that Lachie was the one.
