Curtismith and Leila Alcasid Are Engaged
Check out her stunning pear-shaped ring!
Singer-songwriter Leila Alcasid is now engaged to indie singer, songwriter, and rapper Mito Fabie (also known by his artist name, Curtismith). Based on the couple's collab post on Instagram on September 29, they seem to have gotten engaged on their anniversary.
"The most special anniversary gift," the caption read. The photos in their Instagram post show them against beautiful backdrops in Calaca, Batangas, with Leila happily flashing her stunning pear-shaped engagement ring.
Leila and Curtismith have been a couple since 2019. In a previous interview with PUSH, Leila shared that she met him through industry friends and that he's the first Pinoy she's ever dated.
During the pandemic, the couple decided to live together, a decision that initially didn't sit well with Leila's father, OPM icon Ogie Alcasid. “For sure it wasn’t okay with Tito Ogie [Alcasid] when it happened, because it was so sudden during the pandemic. But that was how things turned out. Good thing Tito Ogie was open-minded enough to sit down and talk to me to hear the reason we decided to do so,” Curtismith told ABS-CBN News.
Fast forward to today, as Leila and Curtismith take their relationship to yet another level, Ogie is among those who wish them nothing but the best in their engagement. Ogie commented on their social media announcement, writing, "The Lord bless you both. I am truly beyond happy for you two. Love you❤️❤️❤️ congratulations."
Other celebrities who congratulated the couple in the comments section include Iza Calzado, Nadine Lustre, Dani Barretto, Ella Pangilinan, Ria Atayde, Dominique Cojuangco-Hearn, Gabbi Garcia, Chie Filomeno, and Darren Espanto.
Leila is Ogie and Australian beauty queen-actress Michelle van Eimeren's daughter. Mito, on the other hand, is the son of award-winning cinematographer Miguel Fabie III and former magazine editor-in-chief Carla Sibal.
Congratulations, Curtismith and Leila!
