Jenn Chia (now 32 years old) - a Malaysian woman - attracted attention when she shared a "selfie" photo she took in October 2012. This was 2 years before Chia and her husband - a British man named Jon Liddell (33 years old) - first met.

The selfie was taken by Chia in a cafe inside a cinema in Malaysia. In the background of the photo is her future husband, Jon Liddell. At that time, the two did not know each other.
Jon Liddell is a young British man, but he and his family have lived in Malaysia for many years. Chia and Liddell were first introduced to each other in December 2014. They got married in August 2023. The fateful photo shared by Chia on his personal social media account immediately attracted the attention of the media and the online community.

Sharing with Malaysian media, Chia said: "Later, we met at the right time. If we had met earlier, for example at the time I took that selfie, I don't think our relationship could have lasted.
I myself in 2012 was still a girl who only knew how to love herself, not knowing how to care about others.
After that, I took a year off to travel, stay single, and reflect on myself and understand why all my relationships ended so tragically. After two years of prioritizing my personal growth, I was introduced to Jon. I was more mature now, and we have had a lasting relationship over the years."
In fact, Chia's story, although it went viral, is not the only known case.

Ailiz was shocked when she looked through her husband’s family photo album and saw herself in a childhood photo of her husband. The story quickly went viral on Ecuadorian social media and was mentioned by many news outlets.

Sharing with Ecuadorian media, Ailiz said: "I have absolutely no memory of the moment I met Pedro at the festival when we were kids, at that time, we didn't know each other, so I have no memories left.
When I went to my husband's house and sat looking at the family album, I suddenly saw myself in a photo. The whole family was very surprised, we couldn't believe it, at first, everyone felt a little... goosebumps, scared, but then, everyone was happy, excited and believed that it was a sign of fate."
It was not until she was in college that Ailiz met Pedro. In fact, Ailiz had noticed Pedro a few months before they had the chance to meet. Ailiz knew she had a crush on Pedro at first sight, but she didn't dare to take the initiative to get to know him.
Until one day Pedro happened to be sitting in front of Ailiz's classroom door, she smiled at him. Looking at that smile, Pedro knew that Ailiz had a good feeling for him so he took the initiative to get to know her.
After two weeks of chatting and finding that they were compatible, they quickly announced their engagement. They were together for 6 years before officially holding their wedding ceremony. Currently, Pedro is a teacher, Ailiz owns a small company, they have a happy marriage.

In 2018, the story of a couple living in Chengdu, China, also made headlines in many international news outlets. The husband in this story was surprised to see himself in a photo of his wife. The photo was taken nearly 10 years before the two met.
The "fateful" photo of Mr. Ye and Ms. Xue was taken in July 2000, when the two did not know each other yet, and they were on a family trip to Qingdao. Coincidentally, the two visited the same place at the same time, and then stood together to take a souvenir photo in the same place...
Mr. Ye's image accidentally appeared in his wife's photo. It wasn't until 2018, when the two had been married for 6 years, that Mr. Ye sat down to look at his wife's old photos and was surprised to see himself in one of her photos. The interesting discovery excited the couple to share on social media and the story quickly went viral at that time.
By 2018, the couple had two daughters. Sharing his story, Mr. Ye said: "We were sitting at my wife's house, we were debating whether the children looked like me or like my wife, so I took out my wife's old album to look at her childhood photos and suddenly saw myself in one of them." Ye said that the unexpected moment initially gave him goosebumps.

In 2011, the couple was introduced by a friend and got married a year later. With this interesting discovery, Mr. Ye and Ms. Xue believe that their marriage was partly due to fate.
In fact, from the very beginning of their acquaintance, the two felt close because Ms. Xue's family lived in the apartment building where Mr. Ye's family had previously lived.
