MANILA, Philippines — Actress Andi Eigenmann and surfer Philmar Alipayo are now engaged!
In an Instagram post Sunday night, Eigenmann shared a photo of her and Alipayo with her engagement ring.
“I never thought about how my engagement would go because quite honestly, I didn’t think I’d have one. It would’ve been ok regardless, but it did happen,” Eigenmann said.
“And it happened the way I wanted it and so much more,” she added.
According to Eigenmann, the engagement was “nothing grand,” “unprompted,” “simple,” and “sincere.”
“That’s us. That’s him. That is how I want the rest of my life to be. I am over the moon, so stoked to be spending it with you my mahal,” Eigenmann said.
In a vlog posted Sunday, the couple also shared about their engagement.
“After a few moments of silence, Papa (Alipayo) started whispering nice things to me about our life together and our growing family… He doesn’t normally talk about his feelings a lot so I was surprised,” the text in their vlog reads.
Later in the video, Alipayo asked Eigenmann to marry him.
“From my whole heart, I am asking you if you will marry me,” Alipayo said, as he pulled out the ring from his pocket and kneeled before a crying Eigenmann.
The couple earlier announced that they are finally going to have their “little happy islandBOY” next month.
The boy will be Eigenmann’s second child with the pro surfer, just a little over a year after Lilo was born. The two first revealed that they were expecting another baby back in August. [ac]
