The 36-year-old television personality and producer feels like he is "constantly learning" about love and enjoyed talking to couples about their ideas about romance for his new documentary 'Why Real is Rare'.

He told The Huffington Post: "When I say 'I'm a student of love' that means that I'm constantly learning and I feel like I don't know anything when it comes to it, really. I have my opinions and my theories.

"But that's what was really unique about this process, is hearing everyone having a different story, different journey. And it just shows you, there's no right or wrong way to love someone. And as much as we try to say, 'Oh, this is what you have to do,' or 'you have to get married,' or 'you have to date for this amount of time,' it's like nah, love is a vibration. And when you feel it, you go with it."

Meanwhile, Nick - who has five-year-old twins Moroccan and Monroe with Mariah Carey - previously insisted he will "always be family" with his ex-wife despite their split.

He shared previously: "It's all about unconditional love. And knowing because they were so young, this is what they know: They know Mommy and Daddy still love each other, but more importantly they love us. It's family. We'll always be family ...

"It's one of those things, I'm a hopeless romantic too. Through this learning process, you never say never. To me one thing I know, that will always be the love of my life, always be my family and that's never going to change. It's extremely disappointing when you see that people just want to perpetuate negativity when there is no negativity even involved."
