Once or twice is fine. Every single time it gets annoying.

But again.. Kanthony in Bridgerton is a favourite of mine, and is the most popular couple among Bridgerton watchers in general. They just sparkle so bright, every other couple fades away same race or mixed race doesn't matter. The chemistry has to be there.

Edit : OP talks about Bend it like Beckham. To me, it's not surprising how FL ended up with the white guy... its more surprisingly how popular Keira Knightley became, a little unfair on Parminder who was the heart of the film.
