Vice Ganda affirmed his love for boyfriend Ion Perez through a heartfelt message on the latter’s birthday yesterday, Nov. 27.
Though Vice had hoped to write an extravagant post for Perez, he instead chose to keep it simple yet meaningful.
“Nung dumating ka naging pinakamaganda kung ano [yung] pinakasimple,” he said on his Instagram page yesterday alongside a selfie of Perez and a photo of them.
(When you arrived, the simplest things became the most beautiful.)

“Kung ano [yung] totoo [iyon] ang maganda. Kung ano yung sinsero [iyon] ang maganda,” Vice added. “Kaya di ko na aartehan.”
(Whatever is true is what is beautiful. Whatever is sincere is what is beautiful. That is why I will not make this extravagant.)
“Happy Birthday Benigno!!!” Vice said. He also mentioned that he constantly prays to the Lord to care for Perez and allow him to be peaceful at all times.
“At sana bigyan [niya] pa tayo ng mahabang panahong magkasama. Kasi gusto kong makapiling ka pa,” the TV host expressed.
(And I hope He gives us more time to be together. Because I still want to be with you.)
“Gusto kong mapasaya pa kita. Gusto kong mahalin mo pa. Gusto kong mahalin ka pa. Dahil tuwing mahal kita doon ako masigla at masaya,” he added. “At [hangga’t] mahal kita yung mundo ko mananatiling maganda!”
(I still want to make you happy. I still want you to love. I still want to love you. Because when I love you, that is when I am alive and happy. And as long as I love you, my world will stay beautiful!)
“Mahal na mahal ka ni Tutoy (Tutoy loves you very much)!” Vice said, referring to his own childhood nickname.
The two met back in 2018 on the noontime variety show “It’s Showtime,” where Vice serves as one of the hosts. They celebrated their second anniversary last month. /ra
