Angel Locsin's husband Neil Arce sure knows how to pull off a Valentine's Day surprise.
At their home in Quezon City, Neil organized a pre-Valentine's dinner, which he used as an occasion to present his wife with her wedding ring.
On Sunday, February 13, 2022, Angel took to Instagram with photos of her and Neil while wearing their rings.
She wrote in the caption: "Pre-valentine’s dinner [heart emoji] Sabi ko simplehan lang!
"May pa-wedding ring si Mr. Arce [emojis] Finally, may wedding ring na rin kami [emojis]
"Thank you my love @neil_arce [heart emoji] #HappyPusoDay"
"Bagay ba? [ring emoji]" Angel asked in an another Instagram post.
She also flaunted her wedding and engagement ring as she wore a black "Valentine's shirt" bearing an Ace of Hearts print.
"For your interpretation," the actress added in the caption.

BORROWED WEDDING RING
Neil and Angel did not have formal wedding rings at their civil wedding.
They were, in fact, surprised when Taguig City Mayor Lino Cayetano, who officiated their civil wedding, asked them for it.
In their YourTube vlog dated August 14, 2021, the couple said they were saving the tradition of exchanging rings for their church wedding.
Neil recalled in the vlog, "Wala kaming dalang singsing. Nag-usap naman kami na we're going to save some moments na mangyayari sa Christian wedding na first time pa rin.
"Pagdating namin dun, unang tanong sa amin ni Mayor, siyempre, 'Ready na ba yung vows niyo?' Nagkatinginan kami, 'Mayor, wala kasi kaming vows.'
"'Sige, ito na, isusulat ko na basahin niyo na lang ito,' sabi sa amin ni Mayor na ganun. 'Yung rings niyo?'
"'Kailangan ba namin ng rings?' 'Hindi puwedeng walang rings.'"
On the spot, Neil and Angel somehow managed to come up with his and her wedding rings—her mock engagement ring and one of the rings of Joaquin, Neil's 14-year-old son.
Neil recounted, "Siya, ginamit namin yung engagement ring niya. Ako, buti na lang yung anak ko medyo rocker, naka-singsing na... Sabi ko, 'Let me borrow your ring.'
"Sabi niya, 'You can use this first.' Sabi sa akin nung anak ko."
