MANILA, Philippines – After getting engaged to boyfriend John “VJ” Yambao, Saturday, July 19, actress Camille Prats shared how the sweet event played out.
In an interview aired on 24 Oras, Monday, July 20, Camille said she was not expecting any surprise since she was only informed that they were having dinner at the family-owned venue in Batangas. Once she arrived, she was led to a special place of honor where she viewed a surprise video. VJ proposed in front of Camille’s family and friends.
“Sabi ko ‘what’s going on? ‘ Tanong lang ako nang tanong. Sabi ni Nathan (her son), ‘Mommy, just trust me. Just follow me, just trust me. Tapos habang naglalakad ako nakita ko yung mga taga-Mars at mga friends ko.
(I said ‘what’s going on?’ I just kept asking and asking. Nathan just said ‘Mommy just trust me. Just follow me, just trust me. And then while walking, I saw the staff from Mars and my friends.)
“Tapos nag play na yung projector then I saw pictures of me and VJ nun’ng mga bata pa kami. It was an emotional night for me,” Camille said.
(And then the projector just played then I saw pictures of me and VJ when we were kids.)
Camille said that what made the night special was her parents and son’s support, aside from being around their friends and family. Most important to Camille was that Nathan would be okay.
According to a report from Pep, the couple will wed in 2017. Before proposing, VJ asked for the blessing of Camille’s family.
Camille noted that her family is very protective of her, particularly her dad.
“Kasi my mom and my dad as much as possible, hindi ako pinapayagan sa mga ganyan bagay. Feeling ko they’re not ready also for me to get married. So dun’n ako medyo naiyak talaga na ‘Paano mo napapayag ang mga magulang ko?’” Camille said on TV.
(My mom and my dad as much as possible, they do not allow me with those type of things. I also feel they’re not ready also for me to get married. Just thinking about that, I was getting teary-eyed because ‘How did you convince my parents?’)
Here are more photos from the lovely occasion:
This is the second marriage for Camille. She was married to Anthony Linsangan in 2008. Anthony died of cancer in 2011.
In 2013, Camille started dating VJ, who was her classmate back in elementary school. The two have since been together and often post couple photos on Instagram. Recently, they attended the wedding of Camille’s brother John Prats to Isabel Oli last May. – Rappler.com
