Napoles and Molina first met in 2014 while working on PETA’s hit musical ‘Rak of Aegis,’ where they played the roles of on-stage lovers. Their professional partnership soon blossomed into a real-life relationship, culminating in their engagement.
The proposal, which took place on the PETA stage, was a deeply sentimental moment for the couple. Napoles reflected on their decade-long journey together, noting that the stage had given him not only a career and friendships but also the love of his life.
“On this stage, exactly ten years, two months, and five days ago, we’ve met for the first time without knowing each other. Two worlds apart. Saudi girl and Tondo boy, nag-duet kaagad tayo nang hindi pa tayo nag-uusap. Doon tayo nagkakilala. So this stage [PETA] has given me a lot of things in my life — progress, dreams, goals, career, a name, family, friends, new friends, and of course, special someone. Pasensiya na 10 taon ang inabot, pinahinog lang siguro ng panahon,” Napoles said to Molina during the proposal.
The announcement has since garnered an outpouring of love and congratulations from fans and fellow celebrities, celebrating the next chapter in Napoles and Molina’s love story.
