And told that the universe might not be aligning with him at that time.
On Monday, March 23, Olympic double gold medalist Carlos Yulo appeared on the afternoon chat show Fast Talk With Boy Abunda on GMA.
During which, the main focus of the conversation was the story of the 26-year-old gymnast rumored purchase of an engagement ring for his long-time girlfriend, content creator Chloe San Jose.
However, he clarified that while he tried, it did not happen. “[Noong] 2023 triny ko po actually pero hindi ako talaga nakabili. Triny ko sa Japan bumili. Triny ko sa Singapore bumili pero ewan ko parang hindi sumasangayon ang mundo sa akin at that time.”
San Jose then told that one of the factors was her accidental discovery that her boyfriend had reserved a ring.
She said, “Part of it kasi nakita ko rin po he was reserving a ring. Kasi po nag-notif siya sa email niya so then hindi ko naman po sinasadya, nakita po na nag-notif na ‘reservation for a ring.’“
“So, of course I had to tell him because we are super open and of course the surprise kasi mawawala. I don’t want to lie about it naman or act surprised kasi siyempre mawawala na ‘yung magic,” she added.
Continuing the story, Carlos added, “So nung nalaman po niya na ganun, and at the same time hindi rin po kasi ako nakabili parang hindi ko muna siya ginawa.”
Their interview comes days after Chloe celebrated her birthday, when she also received a sweet message from Carlos, which was shared on Instagram.
The Olympic champion wrote, “Happy birthday mahal, best cheerleader ko. Ang dami kong gusto sabihin pero puro pasasalamat at pag-hanga sayo yung mga lumalabas sa puso ko.”
He furthered, “Di mo alam kung gaano ako ka-proud sayo sa lahat ng mga ginagawa mo. Mapa-school o work, bukod pa don yung suporta at effort na binibigay mo sa akin, grabe ikaw yung may birthday pero ako yung niregaluhan ng big time ni Lord hehe.”
Carlos shared that he wishes that Chloe will achieve dreams and told, “Palagi mong tatandaan na nandidito lang ako mahal ko para samahan, ingatan, suportahan at mahalin ka sa lahat ng mga yun. I loveyou po sobra!“
