Title: DUSTIN YU SURPRISES EVERYONE WITH SWEET PROPOSAL TO BIANCA DE VERA FOR #GMAGala2025 — “Will You Be My Date?” 💛
[MANILA, Philippines] — Hearts melted and fans squealed with excitement as rising heartthrob Dustin Yu pulled off a romantic and unexpected proposal to none other than actress-influencer Bianca de Vera—asking her to be his official date for the much-anticipated #GMAGala2025!
In what netizens are now calling one of the “cutest and most kilig showbiz moments” of the year, the young Kapuso actor made his move in the most unforgettable way—a surprise rooftop setup, complete with lights, music, and a question that sent Bianca blushing.
A PROPOSAL FULL OF HEART (AND STYLE)
Sources close to Dustin reveal that he spent weeks planning the perfect moment to ask Bianca to the GMA Gala, one of the most glamorous events in Philippine entertainment. Known for his calm charm and boy-next-door appeal, Dustin decided to go all out this time—with an intimate but aesthetic setup on a Tagaytay rooftop overlooking the sunset.
The lights dimmed, a string quartet began playing a soft melody (rumored to be Bianca’s favorite OPM song), and Dustin walked in wearing a crisp white suit. Bianca, who thought she was attending a casual pre-birthday dinner, was caught completely off guard.
Then came the big moment.
“Bianca, would you make the GMA Gala even more unforgettable for me… by being my date?” Dustin asked, holding up a golden card with the words “#GMAGala2025?” handwritten in cursive.
BIANCA’S REACTION? TOTAL KILIG!
Bianca gasped, visibly shocked and moved by the sweet gesture. With a wide smile and slightly teary eyes, she nodded and said yes, prompting a small round of cheers from a few close friends who had been secretly watching from the side.
“I wasn’t expecting this at all. I mean… Dustin! Grabe ka. Ang effort! Of course, I’d love to be your date,” Bianca gushed during a short interview after the proposal.
She later took to Instagram stories to share a candid photo of Dustin holding her hand, with the caption:
“My GMA Gala date 💛 Thank you for making me feel so special.”
FROM RUMORED FLIRTATION TO OFFICIAL PAIRING?
While neither Dustin nor Bianca has officially confirmed any romantic relationship between them, fans have been shipping the two for months, following their sweet banters on social media and a growing number of public appearances together.
This latest development has only added fuel to the fire—with many now convinced that #DustinBianca could be the next big GMA love team.
“Sana sa gala, sila na rin ang mag-debut bilang real-life couple!” a fan commented on TikTok.
CELEBRITY REACTIONS: SHOWBIZ FRIENDS ARE HERE FOR IT
Following the viral moment, fellow GMA stars and influencers chimed in:
Sofia Pablo: “KILIG OVERLOAD! Bagay na bagay kayo! See you both at the gala 💛”
Will Ashley: “Bro, the bar is HIGH. Good luck sa aming lahat sa proposals 😂”
Kyline Alcantara: “This is sooooo wholesome. Love wins!”
Even some GMA executives were reportedly impressed by the buzz the pairing generated, with rumors swirling that a joint project or teleserye might be in the works.
THE POWER OF YOUNG LOVE AND GRAND GESTURES
In an era of lowkey relationships and casual invites, Dustin Yu’s heartfelt approach stood out. His genuine, respectful, and creative way of asking Bianca reminded fans of the old-school romance they miss seeing both in real life and on-screen.
“Whether they’re a real couple or not, this shows us what effort and sincerity look like,” wrote a fan on X (formerly Twitter).
THE COUNTDOWN TO THE GALA BEGINS
With the #GMAGala2025 just months away, everyone is now eagerly waiting to see Dustin and Bianca’s first red carpet appearance together. Will they coordinate outfits? Will Dustin take things a step further? Will this be the beginning of a beautiful showbiz love story?
As far as fans are concerned, this pairing just made the gala 10x more exciting.
