It may have taken them 35 years to finally tie the knot, but Joey de Leon, 71, and his long-time partner Eileen Macapagal – now Mrs. De Leon – proved that it is never too late for true love.
The Eat Bulaga veteran host finally passed on his last name to his lover on March 19.
Joey, wearing a black suit, with Eileen in a simple yet lacy white gown exchanged their heart-tying vows at the Supreme Court.
While their love has given birth to three children named Jocas, Jako, and Jio, this wedding officially makes their relationship legal in the eyes of the law.
But of course, this big celebration and moment for Joey will not be complete if the “Tito, Vic, and Joey (TVJ)” trio is not whole.
Together with their lifetime partners, Senator Vicente “Tito” Sotto III with spouse Helen Gamboa, and Marvic “Vic” Sotto with his wife Pauleen Luna attended the momentous occasion.
In a photo of him and his wife, with the newly-weds in the background, Tito Sotto himself captioned, “That’s it! Natuloy din (It finally happened)!”
To make their wedding more special and shower their love for the couple, the Dabarkads did not miss their shot as well.
In full attendance were comedian Allan K, duo Jose Manalo and Wally Bayola, phenomenal loveteam Alden Richards and Maine Mendoza, Pia Guanio, Ryan Agoncillo, Jimmy Santos, and Ruby Rodriguez.
Joey was previously married to actress Daria Ramirez, who gave birth to two of his children, Keempee and Cheenee.
Fans and supporters also flooded the Eat Bulaga host with their congratulations for their idol’s special day.
