  • We recreated the weekend we met in New York City, seven years later! Throwback to our first date. Revisiting the same locations, even eating at the same restaurants. We finally share the behind-the-scenes of what we were thinking when we met and when the sparks first flew between us. How many of you guessed that we were dating before we announced it? 😜

    Its so crazy watching the rebuild of the channel. Remembering the good old days of the world flight,biking across Spain, and million view videos . Now it feels the most professional, but more casual. Louie feels more calm and relaxed and not rushing everywhere. Slowly but surely the numbers will come back.

      It’s a different channel - raya and Louis is new

    @SarahandMarek 2 ปีที่แล้ว +69

    Can't get over the fact that Louis believed that Lilly didn't like sunsets for like 'years' 🤣

    @laurenrawr6 2 ปีที่แล้ว +25

    I’ve been following louis for around 10 years and remember watching that vlog and seeing clearly even then that he liked you. & I was right! Look how far you two have come, I am so happy to see it!!

    @laurak7247 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

    I find it so funny that Lilly said that she doesn't like sunset when she could easily pic another more believable excuse (like she had to meet a friend somewhere) and Louis still didn't get it

    You should do this again with your children in 7 years 😍 that would be the cutest to see your family walk through the city and the kids get to see where mommy and dad first saw each other, such a fary tale 🥰🥰

    • @RayaandLouis
      @RayaandLouis  2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    @lolsaXx 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1
