Their interracial union, despite facing opposition on both sides, inspired the movie "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner."

They met in England, where their love blossomed, and they married in 1953, symbolizing their diverse backgrounds in their attire.

Settling in Ghana, their unconventional love story continued, eventually inspiring a Hollywood film.
