During an interview, she said,

"We were outside a bar and started talking on the street. He asked me what part of Amsterdam I was living in, and I didn’t know the name of my neighborhood."

As no one cared about them being an interracial couple in Holland, they started their conjugal life happily. A year after getting married, they moved to Los Angeles.   

Though we live in the 21st century; a modern age, issue of discrimination still exist.  

She said,

"I would go so far as to say that I did not prepare my husband for being white in America and being married to a black woman."

"This is what our relationship has become: I am old and used to being treated badly, and he is new and having none of it."

Ruffin clearly stated that she's been facing discrimination and her husband eventually understood how he felt like biased in real.
