GMA reached out to the family and the details of their story are just as beautiful as the candid moment the daughter captured. Describing the ritual, Jones Motivat told the outlet, "My responsibility was to look after Flower here, make sure that she's blossoming. Which is a better way of pruning than starting with the crown on her head. Making sure that she looks like a queen and continues to look like a queen," he lovingly added.

The couple, Bea and Jones Motivat, hold doctorates in psychology and believe in teaching what they have learned from their experience with each other. They have written books on love and give dating lessons through their program. Bea told ABC News, "One thing we did at the beginning of our relationship was to try and understand each other's love languages. For me, it's the acts of service. When someone does something for me. When they help me brush my afro, make for me a cup of tea, I mean, it just means the whole wide world for me."

Love is a driving force in the family, which began when the parents fell in love while they were students at Nairobi University and Bea Motivat took guitar lessons from her future husband. From their story and its correlation with the guitar, the couple has developed an analogy that they shared with the outlet. "We have six strings that have to be tuned every day to survive," Bea said, "One of them is actually guiding and tending after one another and making sure that each string was finely tuned so that the music that comes out would be beautiful."
