Nicky and Pierre: Navigating Social Media Fame
The couple admitted the challenges they faced due to their online fame. Nicky remarked, “There’s this misconception that social media destroyed our relationship, which I don’t think is true … it complicated it.” Yet, despite the intricacies, they felt a sense of responsibility. “We felt responsible for what we’ve created, what we’ve built together,” Pierre added.
Pierre revealed his personal coping mechanism amidst this change. “I took a break from social media, that was my way to process. We’re humans, we just all cope differently,” he said. This pause provided them both space for reflection, leading to a difficult yet important decision. “We have broken up. It’s official … In order to keep growing, we’re making that decision that we both believe is positive because it is in order for us to both keep growing and thrive in this life,” Pierre confirmed.
Nicky elaborated on the growth aspect, “You know when you meet somebody, you meet them at a certain point in life … at a certain point you start to either grow even closer to each other or you go away.” He further noted the importance of prioritizing oneself, “You have to pick yourself first and I think right now we’re both picking ourselves first.”

Nicky emotionally thanked Pierre, “I just want to say thank you for helping me become the man that I am.” He went on to acknowledge their fans, “We owe a huge thank you, not only did you guys give us the opportunities that you gave us, but you … gave us a platform that we both very much cherished.”
Love and Respect Amidst Separation
Despite the pain of separation, they found strength in their experience. Nicky reflected, “When you reach a level of love that I feel like we found, it’s almost like you love that person enough to let them go and vice versa.” Echoing this sentiment, Pierre encouraged their viewers to be brave, “If there’s one thing about love and relationships, don’t be afraid. Jump into it because you’ll leave with so much knowledge and so much more.”
Their shared narrative served as a reminder that they, like anyone else, were susceptible to the ups and downs of relationships. Pierre concluded, “We were just a couple, couples break up. That happens and at the end of the day we were no different than any others.”
