The young couple met in grade school more than a decade ago. They became friends instantly and created their YouTube channel in 2014.

When asked, they said in an interview with the Tubefilter that once they met, they became friends immediately and have never left each other’s side. They grew up together and experienced the highs and lows of life.
Initially, Dan and Riya did not start their YouTube journey together. Dan created the channel first, and after posting several videos, Riya asked him to join. However, the YouTube channel has brought the couple close, not in any romantic kind of way. They consider each other as family.
On 19th January 2020, Dan posted a sequence of Instagram pictures wishing Riya a happy birthday. He captioned the pictures by saying that he remembers 16 years ago meeting this annoying child that later became his best friend and his sister. He also hilariously added that he hates how obsessed he is with her. He thanks her for being his friend who was by his side through the highs and lows of life. He never thought when they met so young that they would end up being so close.
