In early 2018, Swedish YouTuber Never Give Up posted a lengthy video titled 'Being Ugly: My Experience.'
In it, he explained how unhappy he was with the way he looked, listing all the parts of his body and face that he didn't like.
He believed that his appearance was holding him back in life, especially in his efforts to find love.
"My entire life I have been treated quite bad. I feel really alone, and I feel like I was going to search YouTube for people with the same issue as me, and that is being really unattractive," he said.
The video quickly went viral. It has since been viewed 23 million times and racked up more than 160,000 comments.
One of those comments came from Juli.Romina.M who wrote: "I actually think you’re kinda cute tbh. I mean it".
From there, the pair started talking, struck up a relationship and one year later, they got married, making for a pretty incredible meet cute.
Juliana later replied to her original comment on the video: "1 year later I'm his wife."
She said: "Shortly after the wedding I remembered the first comment I ever made to him on his channel :p little did I know that the guy that popped up on my YouTube recommended and I thought he was very cute was going to be my husband.
"Funny how destiny works."
But their love story doesn't end there.
In a video posted earlier this month, the pair excitedly revealed that they were having a baby girl.
"Today we've just going to be talking about stuff that's been going on lately and the biggest news is we finally know the gender," the Swedish YouTuber said.
"It's a girl and her name's going to be Stella. Yeah. So that's what's going on."
And commenters were overjoyed by the news.
One user wrote: "I'm so happy for you guys. It's absolutely insane that you can make something like this from a YouTube comment. Mad respect."
Another commented: "Bro went from 'I'm too ugly' to 'baby gender reveal.'
And a third said: "'For once in my life, my bad sleep schedule is gonna become useful. Dude I feel that SO SO MUCH. Congrats to you both!"
Talk about a happy ending.
