It was not immediately known to the public when Gabriel and Bong started dating, although the pair has reportedly been in a relationship even before she competed in the 2022 Miss Universe pageant.
In a 2024 TV5 interview, Gabriel opened up about their long-distance relationship while she is staying in the Philippines. Gabriel is part Filipino courtesy of her father.
“We have been long distance our whole relationship actually, and we make it work,” the beauty queen said.
Meanwhile, Gabriel has recently explored the Filipino culture by riding a jeepney, going fabric shopping in Divisoria, hopping on a motorcycle service to beat the Manila traffic, and going on a thrift store-hopping. /edv
