As Rhian Ramos has always been supportive of her boyfriend, TV host and businessman Sam Verzosa, she said she would accept “God’s plan” knowing the possibility of being a First Lady of Manila.
“If that’s what God wants for my life, then hindi ko na rin mahi-hindian ‘yun (If that’s what God wants for my life, then I shouldn’t say no to it),” she said on the sidelines of the Asia Leaders Awards-Manila ceremony in Makati, where she graced the event as her partner’s plus one.
Verzosa bagged the Humanitarian Excellence Award and Outstanding Achievement Award for Public Service Program for his GMA show “Dear SV” and Outstanding Achievement Award for Public Service Program Host.

“We’re here to support each other… Kahit ano mang gawin namin in life, lagi kaming nagco-consult sa isa’t isa.

When asked if Ramos and Verzosa plan to take their relationship to the next level, the latter hinted that they have been discussing their future as a couple.
“We’re both in that age na. If naiisip mo ang future ng bansa mo, naiisip mo ang future ng relationship niyo. Part ‘yun ng growth. Laging nonstop ang improvement and pagpa-plano,” he said. “‘Yung mga ginagawa ko, karamihan doon may influence rin niya. Kapag may mga kailangan akong sabihin at gawin, may influence pa rin niya.”
(We’re both in that age. If you’re thinking about the future of your country, you think about the future of your relationship as well. It’s part of growth. Improvements and plans are nonstop. Many of the things I do are influenced by her. If I need to say or do something, it should have at least her influence in it.)
Touching on his milestones, the “Dear SV” host reiterated that Ramos is more than his “lucky charm,” saying that the actress’ “brains and heart” help him become a better man.
“More than the charm, her brains and heart help me. Nabibigyan ako ng peace of mind and magagandang payo. Nakakalma niya ako kapag may bashers. We motivate and inspire each other,” he said. “Mukha akong masipag, pero kung kaya niya [ang ginagawa niya bilang artista], kaya ko rin. So [I thank her] for being my lucky charm and love of my life.”
(More than the charm, her brains and heart help me. She gives me peace of mind and good advice. She calms me down when it comes to dealing with bashers. We motivate and inspire each other. I may look hardworking but if she can do her job as an actress, I can do it too. So I thank her for being my lucky charm and love of my life.)
