Quantcast

As a hopeless romantic, it doesn't take much for me to root silently (and publicly) for a couple, whether I know the full scope of their love story or not. My admiration for singer Miguel and Nazanin Mandi is no different. The couple is young love turned fully grown personified, they are supportive frequent collaborators, unafraid to walk on the wild side, and aesthetically-gifted. Fun fact, as the muse of his life, Miguel wrote "Sure Thing" and "Adorn" for Nazanin.


Coming up on their second-year wedding anniversary, and 15 years in a relationship altogether, Miguel and Nazanin are a testament to the peaks and valleys of love, and doing the work to grow together. Despite issues with infidelity and a subsequent one-year break, Miguel and Nazanin are proof that sometimes love isn't linear and you must break up in order to come back as something better. In a past conversation with Nazanin during her time as a co-host on the Ladies Like Us podcast, Miguel revealed:

"I loved her. I wasn't necessarily always in love with her at the time. And my actions showed that. Because I didn't really know, I was still discovering things for myself about me. And how to love myself and going through that, just transitioning from being a little more obscure and like all of my time and energy going into music. So a lot of the energy and time went to that and our relationship didn't get a lot of the nurturing that could have been shown to her that, that she deserved, that we deserve."

Mistakes are human and what's most important is learning from them and putting in the work to continuously be better for yourself and your partner. Therapy ultimately helped them level up their love and would be the catalyst to the change and understanding both parties needed. Communication is key but one that a lot of us can't master without the tools from a therapist which helped the couple get to a place where they recognized their love was one worth fighting for.

The pair have since married and officially tied the knot in November 2018 in an intimate ceremony that was captured beautifully by Vogue. In honor of Miguel and Nazanin's anniversary, here are 8 times the two were absolute relationship goals.

Aries-April-2025-monthly-horoscopes

April is a month to slow down and to fully grasp what has been. The month starts in fiery Aries Season, but we are also in the thick of Retrograde Season as we begin the month as well. Thankfully, Mercury finally goes direct on April 7, after being retrograde mid-March, and communication matters are clearing up. This is a month of mental clarity, a fresh start, and not being afraid to dream a little bigger.

On April 12, there is a Full Moon in Libra, and this Full Moon brings relationship and financial matters full circle. This is the time to let go of what doesn’t make you feel balanced or in harmony and to create space for more peace to enter your life. Venus goes direct in Pisces on the same day, after being retrograde since March 1, and love is healing. With Venus now direct, there are more opportunities for commitment and longevity in love, and there is overall a greater feeling of romance, receptivity, and compassion in the air now.
