Roula met Doudou when she was only 13.
They were both biking in their Beirut neighbourhood’s public garden during civil war.
Yes, love can blossom even in the middle of blood and fire.
Ten years later, Doudou and Roula got married on a snowy day in Québec’s Montreal.
They have two adorable adult children, Michael and Nicolas.
In addition to family and friends, they also have eternal Kayla, their dog in heaven, along with their cutest cat Dino who lightens up their lives.
And today happens to be their wedding anniversary.
They are highlighting it in Beirut, which has seen darkness once again.
Yes, love can survive multiple Lebanese tragedies as well as migration in both directions.
Another reason for the Douglas to celebrate is that they are on the way to become grandparents for he first time in early 2025. YAY!
As for Bambi, she is blessed in many ways by their presence in her life, as her family.
Yes, Roula is her sister since she came to the world while Doudou became her brother since she was 9 years old.
Another exciting blessing for her is that, thanks to their son Michael (and his beautiful wife Stéphanie), she will soon become a great aunt. Can you imagine her joy and pride?
“Mabrouk” [congrats] to Doudou and Roula ❤️! Long live their growing family of love ❤️!
