Popstar Royalty” Sarah Geronimo and singer-actor Matteo Guidicelli have announced their engagement on Instagram on Thursday. On Matteo’s Instagram account, the former racecar driver posted photos with Sarah, who is obviously wearing a giant diamond sparkler on her hand.
The news posted in Guidicelli’s Instagram account is the first announcement of the “power couple” since Matteo and Sarah have successfully kept their relationship low-profile that nobody ever found out that they have already been engaged for about a year now. The source is Matteo’s younger brother Paolo in a now-deleted Instagram story, wherein he congratulated his Kuya Matteo and soon-to-be sister-in-law Sarah. “Congrats. They were engaged for about a year now. It was just a secret,” Paolo said.
Matteo’s sister Giorgia Guidicelli also took to Instagram to welcome the engagement news. “The year of love. Team Guidicelli ready to expand,” wrote Giorgia, who’s set to marry this year with Sarah as maid-of-honor.Sarah can be seen putting her hands over Matteo’s neck as if doing a “sakal” pose, a play on the word “kasal” (wedding).
