Metro Manila (CNN Philippines, March 15)— Love conquers all— even in the time of the coronavirus disease.
Celebrity couple Sarah Lahbati and Richard Gutierrez on Saturday pushed through with their wedding, despite concerns on the COVID-19 outbreak. The two exchanged “I dos” in a seemingly simple ceremony, with their families and loved ones in attendance.
“I have you. And it’s enough. It’s everything,” the two wrote on their separate Instagram accounts, accompanying the posts with the hashtag “#MrAndMrsGutz.
“The big gathering to celebrate with all our loved ones, friends and colleagues will have to wait because we care more about everyone’s safety and health,” they added.
Gutierrez and Lahbati first met in a television drama in 2012 when they were still artists of GMA Network. The following year, Lahbati gave birth to their first son Zion.
The two were supposed to tie the knot at Shangri-La at the Fort Hotel in Bonifacio Global City this weekend, but decided to hold off the ceremony amid COVID-19 concerns.
