Ruby Rodriguez’s daughter is engaged!

And just like that, Ruby Rodriguez’s daughter Toni Aquino is engaged to her non-showbiz boyfriend.

According to her Instagram announcement, Toni’s actually been engaged for three months now.

 

It has been 3 months and I know some of you are wondering why it took so long to announce it - to be honest, I have been itching to post it ever since it has happened! (I was told to wait ????) Anyway, I suppose the time is right. This guy @centurion_rick wanted to make sure I wasn’t gonna go anywhere and with that he locked it down with a proposal ???? I absolutely said Y E S! C’mon why wouldn’t I want to spend the rest of my life with this guy? He’s already more than what I ask for ???? yes, I know some of you will say “but you’re too young!” “you haven’t graduated college yet!” (don’t get me started on when our grandparents were getting married and pregnant at a young age but no one said anything about that) This is not going to happen right away haven’t you guys heard of a long engagement? Yeah that’s what we are doing and we are damn sure about it; we both made this mature decision. Clichè to say it but once you know you just know - We both want to spend the rest of our lives together but we both have to finish what we are doing now (graduate college for me and he has to finish his army contract.) This is a step I am taking with him - this is the beginning of forever. I couldn’t be any less than absolutely happy ???? I loved calling him my boyfriend but I love to call him my fiancè even more ???? P.S. before any of you start to put your two cents into this just remember it is MY LIFE and NOT YOURS (I am sorry to say that very frankly but some of you just don’t have filters and don’t know boundaries might as well be very straight forward with saying that) and with that I hope you guys will just be very happy for us, support us and pray that we stay together forever!!! ??

“I have been itching to post it ever since it has happened! (I was told to wait). Anyway, I suppose the time is right,” read a portion of her caption to a photo of her elegant engagement ring.

Toni said it’s going to be a long engagement and that “it’s not going to happen right away.”

She said “we both want to spend the rest of our lives together but we both have to finish what we are doing now (graduate college for me and he has to finish his army contract).”

In a separate post, Toni narrated how she met her fiance Rick Centurion. "I never knew that this guy who I met at a party would become a special person in my life. I’ll always remember when we were introduced to each other right after that he asked me where I was from I said “Philippines” and you know what he said “Kinagagalak kitang makilala” then shook my hand again."

How hot is that right?

 

Look who finally got instagram back @centurion_rick ???? He sent these to me over imessage. It’s really cute that even if he’s at the field he’ll still take selfies and send it to me (I send him really bad photos of myself like wacky ones but no he even looks good drinking water like wtf?!? ????????????) But this will also be a National Bestfriend’s day post (Cali time) I never knew that this guy who I met at a party would become a special person in my life. I’ll always remember when we were introduced to each other right after that he asked me where I was from I said “Philippines” and you know what he said “Kinagagalak kitang makilala” then shook my hand again - seriously? I don’t even hear people say that anymore but this man right here did and I guess that was the start. Babe, I couldn’t ask for anyone else thank you for everything and the memes you send me which make me laugh so hard (I fart) - lol!!! But yes, thank you for coming into my life and I love you ????
