Alam ng iba kung ano mga sinasakripisyo niya para maabot namin ang pangarap na ginto sa Olympics together with #TeamHD, nun laro kinilig at masaya ako kasi siya mismo nagsabi God is the center of our relationship, kaya walang duda magYeYes ako dahil swerte ako may isang Julius nagmamahal, nagintindi, at sumuporta sa akin,” Hidilyn shared.
