Narelda Jacobs, a prominent Australian journalist and Studio 10 presenter, recently went Instagram official with her girlfriend Karina Natt. The couple shared a photo of themselves wearing similar outfits and added the Urban Dictionary definition for the “urge to merge” – a phenomenon where couples, usually attributed to lesbians, start to become the same person.
Narelda and Karina’s relationship began during Sydney WorldPride, a celebration of the LGBT community, and they have been inseparable ever since. In fact, the couple has been doing everything together and even became the same person, according to the Urban Dictionary definition.
Narelda Jacobs has been a vocal advocate for the LGBT community and has spoken before about her upbringing in a conservative Christian family. She has struggled to accept her sexuality after being taught that being gay is a sin. But now, Narelda and Karina are happy to embrace their love for each other and this new trend of the “urge to merge.”
Karina Natt is the chief of staff for South Australian Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young, and the couple has been very open about their relationship on social media. They went Instagram official last month and shared a photo of them kissing during the Sydney WorldPride celebrations.
Narelda Jacobs was previously in a relationship with filmmaker Stevie Cruz-Martin, but now she is happy with Karina and they are excited to see where their relationship will take them. Despite the negative connotations associated with the “urge to merge,” Narelda and Karina are happy to embrace this trend and be themselves.
In a world where being yourself is still a struggle for many, it is refreshing to see a couple like Narelda and Karina embrace their love for each other and their individuality. They are a shining example of what love can truly be and we wish them all the happiness in the world.
