Lizelle D’Souza is a costume designer who has worked on various television shows. The couple are proud parents to Dhruv and Gabriel. On multiple occasions, he has credited his wife for his successful career and for always standing by his side. The duo is often considered couple of goals.
Reportedly, their love story is quite interesting. Lizelle Watkins belonged to an Anglo-Indian family. There was a time in the choreographer’s life when he was struggling to make money and used to teach dance at various places. Once, Lizelle came to his dance class and it was here they fell in love with each other. As per reports, when Lizelle used to make mistakes while dancing, Remo D’Souza used to be a strict teacher and scold her. The duo got married at a very young age. Remo later converted to Christianity and adopted his now official name.
As per reports, the couple who have been married now for 25 years have got married to each other thrice in different customs. In 2019, Remo and Lizelle got married for the third time as per Christian rituals on their 20th wedding anniversary.
If this does not melt your heart, then here is an anecdote that the dance master had once shared on the sets of Dance India Dance. In an episode, Mithun Chakraborty had taken a dig at Remo to which he replied that he used to give 100 missed calls to Lizelle every day during his struggle period. He clarified that if one wanted to talk on the phone for a minute, they would have had to pay Rs 16. Hence, he communicated with her via missed calls.
