Nefertiti and Akhenaten both were said to be in deep love and inseparable. King Akhenaten's love was well-known for his wife, and as a couple they were often seen riding in chariots together, even kissing in public and with her sitting on his knee, a dynamic not generally seen in depictions of ancient pharaohs.
