Radio jock and former Eat Bulaga host Sam YG is next in line to get married as he announced that he is now engaged to her non-showbiz girlfriend Esssa Santos.

The Indian-Filipino personality shared the good news on his Instagram account on Tuesday, January 26.

Sam posted a photo where he is seen kneeling on one knee while showing the ring in front of his girlfriend in a dreamy proposal setup.

Sam wrote in the caption, "Essa YES [ring emoji} #SignedSealedDelivered #ThatsItPansit #SwerteKoLang"

Essa, on the other hand, expressed how surprised she was when Sam popped the question.

She wrote on Instagram, "Kung kelan naka pambahay lang...

"I ugly-cried the whole time. Have to say I did not expect this proposal at all--I kinda wish I did para mas prepared ako, but it makes for a great story anyway!

"It was always gonna be an 'of course,' my love... Thank you for this wonderful-amazing experience. I am truly the luckiest girl! I love you in all ways, always [heart emojis.]"

According to her Facebook account, Essa is a corporate marketing head of a financing company. She also works as the general manager of beauty pageant Miss Asia Pacific International.

Sam and Essa became an official couple on May 1, 2018.
