SHOWBIZ BEAT MEDIA

Fans went ballistic when news spread that celebrity couple Maine Mendoza and Arjo Atayde finally got engaged.

One may note that Maine made the first move by posting photos on her Instagram account on Friday.

Her caption wrote, “Wait, whaaaat??? We’re engaged?!” Later on, Arjo then wrote on his page, “My turn, I will marry you cutie. ❤️ 07.28.22.”

Meanwhile, pictures of Maine with Arjo’s family made rounds on social media. The actress was seen shedding tears while hugging Arjo’s mother, veteran star Sylvia Sanchez. 

Arjo’s sister, Ria Atayde, also expressed how thrilled she was to have Maine as a part of the family. 

“You’ve always been Mister Grand Gestures [Arjo]. But I think among all you’ve done, this has got to be my most favorite. And I think among all the many changes we welcomed in our lives this year, this has got to be the best.”

“So excited to officially welcome you into the family. Stay happy and in love! Congratulations to the two of you.”

It can be recalled that rumors began to circulate that Maine and Arjo were dating back in 2018. A year later, the two admitted that they were exclusively dating. 

On December 21, 2021, the power couple celebrated their third anniversary on a yacht.
