Mikael Daez and Megan Young to go on a 50-day LDR for the first time
Mikael Daez and Megan Young will be away from each other for over a month, the longest they'll be away from each other since getting married in 2020 — the first time they'll be away from each other, come to think of it.
On Wednesday, Mikael broke the news with an Instagram Reel, saying Megan is off for a solo trip abroad.
“She’s [traveling] the world and she’s riding solo this time,” the Kapuso actor wrote, adding that by the time the Miss World 2013 titleholder comes back in the Philippines, Mikael will be off to South Korea to shoot Running Man PH.
“Basically, the next time you will see the duo of Bonez and Fofo together will be two months from now!” The actor said with a shocked face emoji.
As challenging as LDR sounds, Mikael is super excited for Megan to embark on her solo traveling journey.
“She’ll also be figuring out how to do all of this on her own, which means she’s going to learn a lot. And of course, I think she’s going to have a blast on this solo adventure,” wrote the "Running Man PH" cast member.
Mikael however admitted having mixed feelings about their “new status quo” for the next two months, noting this is the first time they would be apart from each other since the onset of the pandemic in 2020.
“But ultimately, I think we’ll both learn so many more things and it’ll be a nice way to reflect on the what we just went through,” he reassured.
Mikael concluded traveling has always been a strong pillar of their marriage. So, traveling and doing their own thing separately gives him a “sense of intrigue for the future.”
“Being in foreign places and new situations has always taught me so many new lessons. I wonder what we’ll get out of this one,” he wrote with a curious face emoji.
In true Mikael fashion, the Instagram Reel of their LDR announcement was hilarious! In the video, the married couple was seen outside an airport where Mikael asked Megan if she would miss him, to which the beauty queen responded, “whatever, bye.” It cut to a clip of Megan crying, uttering the words, “paano kung maghiwalay tayo?”
“I am happily juxtaposing the brave face that Boneezy put on this reel to her reaction to the same situation 2 years ago,” he said.
Mikael and Megan tied the knot in 2020, after eight years of being a couple.
We wish you all the best on this phase, Mikael and Megan! — LA, GMA News
