“Ganda!” Miranda exclaimed. (Beautiful!)
“Tsaka grabe, sosyal ng sala niyo,” he joked. (And wow, your living room is very elegant.)

Miranda and Abad dated for seven years before they reportedly parted ways in 2009. Five years later, Miranda married actress Neri Naig, with whom he shares three children named Pia, Miggy and Cash.
In 2016, prior to Abad’s wedding to Paul Jake Castillo, Miranda expressed his support for the pair and said that he was on good terms with them.
“Before pa naging sila, nag-usap na kami ni Kaye, sabi ko boto ako kay Paul Jake… Of course, OK kami lahat,” the singer said at the time. “I’m really happy for her. Sana, magawa nila lahat ng dreams nila. I’m glad they’re settling down. Never nawala ’yung friendship.”
(Even before they got together, I already talked to Kaye and told her that I like Paul Jake for her. Of course, we’re all okay. I’m really happy for her. I hope they achieve all their dreams. I’m glad they’re settling down; and our friendship was never gone.)
Abad and Castillo have two sons together, namely Joaquin and Iñigo.
