The story behind Lauren Morelli and Samira Wiley's relationship is SO cute

The internet almost broke yet again last weekend when pictures from Samira Wiley and Lauren Morelli's beautiful wedding were released on Saturday.

The pair, who met while working together on the set of Orange Is The New Black tied the knot in Palm Springs, California. Ironically, the exact same place as where the couple got engaged, aw!

The OITNB stars began dating back in 2014, soon after Lauren split from her husband of two years, Steve Basilone, after coming out as lesbian whilst writing for the show.

"I realised I was gay in 2012, (during) one of my first days on the set," Lauren wrote on Identities.Mic.

“Accordingly, I was nervous about the first love scene I’d written for Alex (Laura Prepon) and Piper (Taylor Schilling). I loved writing it, loved watching a tenderness emerge in their relationship where passion always seemed to be the ruling principle, but by that time, I was so deep in my own self-doubt that I constantly felt like a fraud.

“I was sure it was bleeding into my writing. How could it not? I was married to a man, but I wasn’t straight.

Yes.

“I went through it all on set: I fell in love with a woman, and I watched my life play out on screen. And now, as we are gearing up for the release of Season 2, it feels liberating and appropriate to live my life in front of you.”

How adorable! We would say that you couldn't write this kind of thing, but, obviously...

The couple have been together for three years, and we never knew that this was the backstory of their beautiful, happy relationship! We thought we couldn't love OITNB anymore than we already do, but this just tips it over the edge.

We wish Lauren and Samira all the very best!

Orange Is The New Black returns to Netflix in June, 2017.
