Often Mistaken for Husband and Wife, Here are 8 Pictures of Carissa Putri and Fajar Putra's Closeness - Close Cousins who have been Close Since Childhood and Were Once Separated by 2 Countries

The figure of Fajar may already be familiar to the public. He is commonly known through his Instagram account named Penyogastar. Yes, Fajar is indeed a yoga instructor for celebrities.

Long before today, he became Carissa Putri's yoga instructor. Apparently, their relationship is not only limited to that. According to Fajar, he and Carissa have been close since long ago. Carissa herself revealed that they are cousins.

"Those who are close to us know that since we were little, we always stick together like Siamese twins. Suddenly, we had to be separated for 2 years due to the pandemic," he wrote on Instagram in March.

The closeness between Fajar and Carissa is indeed special. It's no wonder that he is often mistaken as Carissa's husband. Moreover, Carissa's real husband rarely appears in public.

Still fresh in memory, back when Carissa hadn't left for Australia, Fajar often visited her house. He enjoyed playing with Carissa's first child.

Since then, they had to be separated in different countries. Fajar admitted that it wasn't easy. 

"It's really not easy. Even though we still call and video chat, it still feels different," said Fajar last March when meeting Carissa.

Now, Carissa has returned to Indonesia. She and Fajar often spend time together, including hanging out with Olla Ramlan.
