Catriona Gray and Sam Milby are engaged

Wedding bells are ringing for couple Catriona Gray and Sam Milby!

The former Miss Universe made the big announcement on Thursday, February 16 on Instagram, sharing a sweet photo with her now-fiancé, holding coffee cups with "Mr. Milby" and "Future Mrs. Milby" written on them. Catriona also flaunted her engagement ring on her ring finger.

"Living in an answered prayer with my best friend. I love you, fiance (eeeeee)," Catriona wrote, tagging Sam.

Sam also posted the same photo with the caption: "I (FINALLY) put a ring on it! I love you my forever koala... now my [fiancée]."

In the comments section, friends and fans greeted the happy couple with congratulatory messages.

Fellow beauty queen Hannah Arnold wrote: "OMG CONGRATULATIONS ATE CAT AND KUYA SAM."

Binibining Pilipinas Grand International 2020 Samantha Bernardo also said: "Omg!!! Congratulations @catriona_gray. Another crown from us @evapatalinjug I cannot! LOVELOVELOVE," while actor Enchong Dee also left red heart emojis on the post.

Fans previously suspected the couple of being married when Catriona posted about being “at her happiest.”

Sam denied it saying: “Not true. Hindi pa kami kasal. Assumptions lang ng mga tao.” But the actor added that they've already talked about getting married.

“I mean, we’ve discussed it pero hanggang doon lang muna. You guys will know naman if it happens. Hindi naming itatago.”

Sam and Catriona have been together since 2020. Catriona first confirmed her relationship with Sam on Instagram during his birthday in 2021.
