Love Story
Cheryl and Raymond met through Cheryl's cousin, who introduced the two back when Cheryl was still in college while Raymond was already working. From the first time they met, the two clicked right away and have been inseparable ever since. With their strong connection, Cheryl and Raymond enjoyed a steady nine-year relationship.
On their ninth anniversary as a couple, Raymond decided to pop the question as they were having a special dinner at Sofitel Philippine Plaza's Spiral restaurant. "I was so surprised because we've already started planning our wedding, and have already bought our wedding rings so I wasn't expecting an official proposal anymore, much less an engagement ring!" Cheryl shares. "That only made everything all the more memorable," she adds.
