Check out these heartwarming love stories that will soon begin their journey in life at the end of the aisle.
Moira dela Torre gets married
The wedding bells rang early this year when singer Moira dela Torre and her now husband Jason Marvin Hernandez tied the knot on Monday, January 14. The couple held an intimate garden wedding outside Manila with family and close friends. Indie band Ben&Ben even performed a heartwarming version of Moira’s ‘Tagpuan’ during the ceremony. The ‘Titibo-Tibo’ singer won’t be the only one expected to share nuptials this year. With an array of our favorite Filipino celebrities popping the question in 2018, it won’t be long until we see another blushing bride walking down the aisle.
Here are some Celebs who are tying the knot real soon!
1. Makisig Morales and Nicole Joson
21-year-old ‘Bagani’ actor Makisig Morales proposed to Fil-Aussie girlfriend in Perth, Australia last September 2018 (via ABS-CBN). The two first met in a gathering of friends and became friends before dating. He said that he knew early on that he wanted to spend the rest of his life with her. Morales popped the question to the Miss Earth Australia Charity 2017 in a fine dining restaurant called C with the words “Will You Marry Me” written on a plate. “He stole my heart, so I’m stealing his last name,” said Joson in an Instagram post. Morales revealed that they’re expecting to tie the knot this June, most likely in Australia.
2. Jake Zyrus and Shyre Aquino
Singer Jake Zyrus made headlines when he announced his engagement to non-showbiz girlfriend Shyre Aquino last November 2018. Jake opened up that he knew he wanted to commit to Aquino because she understood the depressions and troubles he faced over the course of his life (via ABS-CBN).
The former child-star said every person that’s special to him will be invited. He is still unsure if his mother, of whom he shares a difficult relationship with, will be attending. Rumors had it that Oprah Winfrey may attend, but it’s all still tentative. The wedding’s details are on a hush-hush, but with the excitement behind the special event, it just may come sooner than we think.
3. Jay R and Mica Javier
Singer-songwriter Jay R recently popped the question to longtime girlfriend Mica Javier October 2018. The two have been in a relationship for more than four years. The couple both shine in the music industry, with Javier appearing in ‘Showtime.’
But hold your excitement, they are in no rush to get married. Though they won’t be expecting to tie the knot until 2020, it’s going to be a great year of planning that the newly-engaged couple is surely going to enjoy.
