Sherilyn Reyes-Tan and hubby Chris


Sherilyn to Chris: “I love how we have both changed for the better and we are still learning together.”

Two decades and counting.

Former Bahay Mo Ba 'To actress Sherilyn Reyes-Tan was feeling sentimental as she marked her 20th anniversary with Chris Tan.

Chris, a former basketball player, is the father of her children Lorenz and Eia. Ryle Paolo Santiago is her son with ex-partner Junjun Santiago.

In her post Thursday morning (August 12), Sherilyn looked back to the last twenty years with Chris.

She posted some sweet photos with him and wrote in the captions: “20 years! How did we get here? We go lifting our own chair. Love is patient- God knows how both of us tried and still try to be patient with each other on times we put our patience to a test. We practice deep breathing. Love is kind- kill your spouse with kindness kahit nakakainis.”

Mommy Sherilyn clarified to her followers that their relationship is far from perfect.

“I have learned to rant to God when I don't like you. I just pray for God to take away whatever bad feelings I have for you then just discuss with you on days when you are in the best mood. Kasi when we have issues, maya maya parang walang nangyari unless big matters, me tension whole day until we sit down and talk about it Cause you are the confrontational type who would sit us all down to discuss issues- Encourages open communication.”

She added, “Love does not keep a record of wrong- maswerte ka Honey. Sometimes when we fight, after sometime I ask myself what led us to an argument tough for things that really matter, I just have my different ways of relaying to you which for you always have to be discussed na for me basta I get my point across, ok na di pag usapan any further. While you, keep on telling me what's wrong with me hoping I could change it, kasi paulit ulit.”

The versatile actress noted that they both strive hard to learn things together and she lauded Chris for being a good example to their kids.

She shared, “I love how we have both changed for the better and we are still learning together. Pansinin mo pride ko, wala na I love it that even if you always say you know you are doing the right thing you still try to do better based on comments and suggestions.

“I love that you always make sure I feel your love. You always tell our boys if they find someone like me they'd be lucky, and I pray they love the way you do so their future wives will be lucky. I thank God for where we are now in terms of our faith. God has never failed to make us feel His presence.

“We continue our quest for God's truth. I love you Mahal, my funny yet sometimes annoying and sometimes not so gentle giant. I know the ride has never really been easy but it has been proven, as long as we are together, with God, there is no storm we cannot weather. @chrisdtan.”

For his part, Chris also took to Instagram to express how much he appreciates Sherilyn and for making him a “complete man.”

“For the past 20 years, I have gone through all emotions with this one constant person in my life which is my wife Shey [emoji] 20 years mahal!!! Thank you for making me the happiest & complete man the past 20 years.”
