Preet and Millie’s love story began with a chance meeting at Melbourne’s Botanical Gardens in 2014. A decade later, they are happily married, raising two children, and embracing both Punjabi and Chinese traditions. This Valentine’s Day, they share their story with SBS Punjabi—how they navigate cultural differences, build a family, and the language Millie switches to when they argue.

Key Points
