Couple with heart: person, person, light skin tone, medium skin tone Emoji

People

A composite emoji displaying two people standing side-by-side with a floating red heart between them. This version specifically features a light-skinned person alongside a medium-skinned person, highlighting diversity within romantic partnerships.

Usage Context

Used to celebrate relationships, anniversaries, or general displays of affection between partners. People often send this when announcing a new relationship or showing support for a loved one. It is frequently accompanied by emojis like 🥰 or 💍 to emphasize the strength of a bond.

History

While the base concept of a couple with a heart was standardized early on, the ability to combine individual gender and skin tone modifiers via Zero Width Joiner (ZWJ) sequences was introduced in Unicode 10.0 in 2017. This technical update allowed users to represent diverse, specific pairings that weren't possible in earlier versions of the emoji keyboard.
