This Couple Shared Their Glow Up and Now Twitter Can't Get Enough

The power of Black love is real.
This Couple Shared Their Glow Up and Now Twitter Can’t Get Enough

By Lauren Porter · Updated October 26, 2020

When you fall in love with the right person, your life always changes for the better–just ask Beauty and Lifestyle Influencer Ronke Raji and her fiancé Arthur Adeola. 

On Tuesday night, the Nigerian beauty posted a throwback photo of she and her beau and let’s just say their glow up is definitely all the way real. 

The glow up is real but the grow up is heavy. From boyfriend to fiancé soon to be husband #cantwait pic.twitter.com/lqsLSr4KyC

“The glow up is real but the grow up is heavy. From boyfriend to fiancé soon to be husband #cantwait,” she captioned their side by side photos. 

The couple became engaged in July after 7 years together and certainly personify style and love goals. 

When I met you 7 years ago, I remember telling my friend that I had met my husband. I told her that he's "husband material" not boyfriend. It's been a journey but I wouldn't have it any other way! This whole experience has just made me trust the timing of my life. Through the laughs, through the tears and through the rain, my love I'm glad I get to spend it with you. Ahhhh! I'm engaged to @bysirarthur and I can't keep calm because he's my soulmate! Thank you guys for all the love ❤️❤️photo cred: @thinkpoppy
