Jennylyn Mercado, Dennis Trillo are engaged—and about to have a baby!


Jennylyn Mercado and Dennis Trillo have announced that they are engaged—and about to have a baby!

The Kapuso couple shared the good news on Nelson Canlas’ “24 Oras” report Friday.

“We are getting married!” said JenDen.

Sharing details of the surprise proposal, Dennis said he just wanted it to be a simple and intimate celebration at home.

“Syempre gusto ko hindi masyado magarbo. Sa panahon ngayon, dapat maging practical. Ginawa kong simple pero heartfelt pa rin,” he said.

“Wala akong idea dahil hindi ako masyado bumababa ng bahay. Pero nung time na ’yun, sinabi sa ’kin ni Dennis kailangan ko daw bumaba dahil may ishu-shoot daw kami parang future message,” said Jennylyn.

“— To our future selves,” Dennis continued.

“Nagkaroon ako ng kutob nung nagsimula siya magsalita dahil seryoso niya akong kinakausap. ‘Parang may mangyayari ata,’” said Jennylyn.

“Tapos noong nagsalita na siya, naiiyak ako. Kasi ngayon ko lang siya nakitang ganung ka-intense, ka-serious. Tapos lumuhod, nagulat ako bumukas ng pinto.”

Dennis said he proposed at home for safety reasons—and more.

“Sa condition ni Jen, hindi siya makalabas ng bahay dahil may pinagdadaanan na medyo maselan,” he said.

Nelson then asked the question: “Jen, are you pregnant?”

“Positive ako,” said Jennylyn.

The actress said she began feeling symptoms two months ago when she was taping for the series “Love. Die. Repeat.” She was getting emotional and having acid reflux, headaches, and nausea, and her period had been delayed.

“Sa tamang oras, sa tamang panahon, sa pagkakataon na ready ka na siguro, duon siya ibibigay sayo,” said Jennylyn. “May 2 boys na kami so sana, sana ibigay samin ang baby girl.”

After the “24 Oras” segment, further details of their engagement and pregnancy would be shared on their vlog.

The Kapuso couple celebrated their 7th anniversary in January this year.

Congratulations, JenDen! – RC, GMA News
