Malaysian singers Syamel and Ernie Zakri are best known for their searing duet Aku Cinta. Who would've thought that their on-stage chemistry would spill over off-stage too?

Back in 2016, Syamel, 27, and Ernie, 28, first got to know each other when they were paired together to compete against other duet teams in the reality singing series, Duo Star.
