It may have taken them 35 years to finally tie the knot, but Joey de Leon, 71, and his long-time partner Eileen Macapagal \u2013 now Mrs. De Leon \u2013 proved that it is never too late for true love.<\/p>\n

The Eat Bulaga veteran host finally passed on his last name to his lover on March 19.<\/p>\n

Joey, wearing a black suit, with Eileen in a simple yet lacy white gown exchanged their heart-tying vows at the Supreme Court.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

But of course, this big celebration and moment for Joey will not be complete if the \u201cTito, Vic, and Joey (TVJ)\u201d trio is not whole.<\/p>\n

Together with their lifetime partners, Senator Vicente \u201cTito\u201d Sotto III with spouse Helen Gamboa, and Marvic \u201cVic\u201d Sotto with his wife Pauleen Luna attended the momentous occasion.<\/p>\n

In a photo of him and his wife, with the newly-weds in the background, Tito Sotto himself captioned, \u201cThat\u2019s it! Natuloy din<\/em> (It finally happened)!\u201d<\/p>\n

To make their wedding more special and shower their love for the couple, the Dabarkads did not miss their shot as well.<\/p>\n

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.<\/p>\n

Joey was previously married to actress Daria Ramirez, who gave birth to two of his children, Keempee and Cheenee.<\/p>\n

Fans and supporters also flooded the Eat Bulaga host with their congratulations for their idol’s special day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
