In a clip released ahead of the documentary, both discuss their relationship and what brought them together.
"It kind of just meshed as soon as we met," Bueckers said in the Apple TV clip. "She's sweet, she's genuine. She has a huge, caring heart. We kind of felt a spark a little bit different than what would just be a normal friendship."
