President Ferdinand Marcos Jr. said he has plans to mark Valentine’s Day today (February 14) with First Lady Liza Marcos but did not detail them.
“Yes, it’s Valentine’s Day again. Time passes by so fast, Oh, gosh. Do I have any plans? I do now” he said in a chance interview with the media.
Mr. Marcos just came from a five-day working visit to Japan where he was accompanied by the First Lady and their eldest son, Ilocos Norte Rep. Ferdinand Alexander “Sandro” Marcos.
The Marcos couple first met in New York when the First Lady was still a practicing lawyer.
They got married at the San Francesco Convent in Fiesole, Italy on April 17, 1993.
Aside from Sandro, the presidential couple has two other sons: Joseph Simon Marcos and William Vincent Marcos.
During Mrs. Marcos’ birthday in August, the President serenaded his wife, whom he described as the family’s “all-around lifesaver,” with his rendition of “Never Let Her Slip Away.”
