Couple parted by the pandemic finally gets their happily ever after
After months separated by the pandemic — and the whole of the Atlantic Ocean — these two men found their way back to one another.Lee and Aerjay, surnames now Kingham-Italia, originally matched on Tinder at the end of 2019 while Aerjay was visiting friends in the UK on holiday.
The two decided to meet up for dinner in Trafalgar Square in central London on New Year’s Day.“We were chatting back and forth and he had asked me for a couple of restaurant recommendations,” Lee tells MyLondon. “After a few days, I suggested we try out one of the food places together.
I got Aerjay to download the [what3words] app so we could find a place to meet up.”Knowing the area would be swamped by New Year’s parade spectators, Lee had Aerjay download the what3words location app.
The app maps the world out in 3mx3m squares, each with their own specific 3 word code.The code to their meeting spot, “///sage.trick.solved”, has become a special phrase binding the two together.
