ACTRESS Heart Evangelista and Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero are now engaged to be married.
Evangelista’s best friends, Lovi Poe and Alessandra de Rossi, took to image-sharing application Instagram to share the happy news of the couple.
Both Kapuso actresses posted on Saturday evening a series of photographs and videos taken during Escudero’s proposal to the “StarTalk” host.
“After months of planning, congratulations @saychiz for pulling off the best surprise for @iamhearte!!! We’re so happy that we’re here to witness this special occasion,” Poe said.
She added: “I’m so happy for you guys! Chiz and Heart. You finally found someone who gives you that feeling that people write novels about. Someday when the time comes all I have to do is look at you both and always remember to choose happiness more than anything in this world.”
Poe even recorded the moment when Escudero went down on one knee and asked Evangelista’s hand in marriage.
De Rossi congratulated the couple and uploaded a close-up photo of Evangelista’s heart-shaped engagement ring.
Escudero and Evangelista are dating for almost two years now.
The senator was married to Christine Flores but the union was annulled in 2012. They have two kids. (MNS)
