Riko told Nicolas she had two pet sugar gliders – which are also known as flying squirrels – and the ‘Pig’ star knew there would be sparks between them.
He told ‘Entertainment Tonight’: We met in Japan and I thought she was stunning when I met her. We had a lot in common. She likes animals, too, so I asked her, Do you have any pets? And she said, Yes, I have flying squirrels. She had two sugar gliders . I thought, That s it. This this could work out. ”
