They got engaged in July 2022 after four years of dating.“Definitely the wedding is in the works but that’s all I can say for now. We’re preparing for it. I’m enjoying it. And definitely it’s within the year. It’s also part of what we’re planning right now. Surprise na lang (laughs),” Arjo said in a recent interview.Earlier this month, Maine shut down reports circulating on social media that her wedding with Arjo will be featured on television.“Huh? This is not true and the article is misleading. Not sure if clickbait done on purpose or comprehension is just (sad),” she said in a tweet.“I am the last person to publicize a personal affair.”“Kakaloka din how some netizens would simply believe what they see on the Internet,” she added. “Kailan ba mauuso ang fact-checking?!”<div><a href="https://push.abs-cbn.com/2023/6/11/maine-mendoza-dispels-rumors-about-having-televised-wedding-1157">READ: Maine Mendoza dispels rumors about having ‘televised wedding’</a></div>Maine and Arjo have been together since December 2019. During an appearance on Magandang Buhay last May, the Cattleya Killer star opened up about his desire to have a family with Maine, revealing that he wants to have at least three children with the actress.&quot;Whatever it is that we could have in the future, definitely in the near future it&#x27;s part of our plan. Kung ano ang ibigay ng Diyos. But definitely three at least in God&#x27;s time, or let&#x27;s see,&quot; Arjo said.
