Maricel Laxa could not help but be emotional on her 55th birthday after her husband, Anthony Pangilinan, got down on one knee and gifted her with a new wedding ring.
Pangilinan gave a glimpse of their moment through a video on his Instagram page on Tuesday, Feb. 25.
“She lost her wedding ring in taping last year, so after a few months of saving for it (I did!), I was able to replace it in time for her birthday!” he said in the caption.
In the clip, Pangilinan first gave Laxa a small envelope with a card inside. He then took out from his pocket a small pouch containing the ring, then got down on one knee while holding the ring in front of Laxa.
“’Will you stay married to me after 30+ years?’” he added in the caption. “Well, the card actually said ‘Shout it out from the rooftops again, ‘I am the wife of Anthony Pangilinan!’”
“Happy 55th this 25th! (Kahit mukhang 35 ka lang) I love you!” he concluded.
“I LOVE YOU,” the actress responded via the comments section.
