Tom Rodriguez and Carla Abellana recently announced that they are engaged to be married.

Rodriguez shared the announcement on 21 March with a photo of him showing off the ring on Abellana’s finger, writing a quote from Chilean poet Pablo Neruda that read, “I love you without knowing how, or when, or from where. I love you simply, without problems or pride: I love you in this way because I do not know any other way of loving but this…”
