The 30-year-old Julia opened up about the little things Coco does that make her feel beautiful and loved, and how his quiet gestures speak volumes about the kind of man he is.

"Kinikilig na (ako). Ano ba 'yan? Nahiya naman ako. Teka lang, pinawisan ako," she said, laughing when asked how Coco makes her feel beautiful. "Hindi kasi up to now, nagkakahiyaan pa rin kami magtinginan. So whenever he looks at me and says, 'Ganda mo, bagay sa'yo yung ayos mo,' ako yung parang kinikilig from the inside."

Julia revealed that Coco has many ways of expressing his love.

"He has many ways of making me feel beautiful, but simple things like that — I appreciate it kasi siyempre tinitingnan ka, eh," she shared. "His love language is service, but he also doesn't forget (words) of affirmation. So that's what amazes me about him kasi parang ang dami niyang love language. He's also into gift giving parang he has all the love languages."

For Julia, what stands out most is how Coco is how thoughtful and attuned he is to what she needs in the moment. "Depende sa kung ano yung kailangan ko, yun yung inaano ko. Pag nararamdaman niya kailangan ko ng affirmation, ibibigay niya. Ganun siya."
