EJ was caught by surprise as she didn’t expect to get proposed to during her partner’s birthday celebration.</p><p>“Gusto ko lang sabihin at ipagsigawan sa lahat ng mga kaibigan ko na nandito, kaya napaka-importante niyo sa akin, na itong babaeng &#x27;to (EJ) papakasalan ko… Itong babaeng &#x27;to, mamahalin ko hanggang dulo. Kaya maraming salamat sa pagpunta niyo,”  he shared.</p><p>It was back in 2020–– during Bugoy’s 18th birthday–– when the couple revealed that they already have a daughter. He was only 16 years old when he became a father, while EJ was 21 years old at that time. </p>
