Maine Mendoza, Arjo Atayde look back at ‘cutie’ tweet after marriage proposal
Maine Mendoza and Arjo Atayde consider July 28 as a quite special date because it is when they not only got engaged but also when the actress “manifested” her relationship with Atayde years ago.
Back in July 28, 2013, then-teenaged Mendoza gushed over Atayde on her Twitter page by writing “Arjo cutie,” way before she started her showbiz career through the noontime show “Eat Bulaga.” Nine year later, on the same date, Atayde and Mendoza got engaged and the couple could not help but look back at the tweet.
Atayde referenced the tweet when he showed photos from his proposal via Instagram yesterday, July 29.
“My turn, I will marry you cutie,” he said, along with the date “07.28.22.”

For her part, Mendoza showed a screenshot of the old tweet by reposting the Instagram Stories of her friend Janicka, also yesterday. On top of her tweet and their engagement, Mendoza noted that her first meeting with Atayde took place on the special date as well, July 28, 2018.

Fans on Twitter expressed happiness for the couple as they congratulated them on their engagement.
“Grabe yung ‘Arjo cutie’ ni Maine, umabot sa ‘Will you marry me?'” one @jochendria said. (Maine’s “Arjo cutie” was overwhelming, it reached “Will you marry me?”)
