Businessman Atong Ang and actress Sunshine Cruz have officially revealed their romantic relationship, charming fans with a heartfelt performance of “Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang.” Their duet of the Ogie Alcasid hit quickly gained traction online, with supporters praising the couple’s chemistry and newfound happiness.
Rumors about their relationship began earlier this year when videos of the two sharing intimate moments circulated on social media. In one clip, Sunshine approached Atong and kissed him, while another captured Atong doing the same. These moments fueled speculation, which was later confirmed by Atong himself during an interview. “Yes, Sunshine and I are in a relationship. We’re both happy and thankful for everyone’s support,” he shared.
Sunshine Cruz, a celebrated actress in the Philippine entertainment industry, has experienced her share of ups and downs in relationships. Her marriage to actor Cesar Montano, which ended in annulment in 2018, was followed by a long-term partnership with Macky Mathay, which concluded in 2022. Despite these challenges, Sunshine seems to have found joy once again with Atong.
Cesar Montano, her ex-husband, expressed his well-wishes for the couple. “I hope they live happily ever after. They both deserve happiness. When Sunshine is happy, it reflects on our daughters, and as their father, that means a lot to me,” Montano stated, showing his support.
The couple’s public debut as partners was further highlighted by their rendition of “Bakit Ngayon Ka Lang,” which resonated deeply with fans. A TikTok video of their duet captured the couple’s lighthearted and heartfelt performance, drawing admiration and affectionate comments from netizens. Many noted how the lyrics seemed to echo their love story, symbolizing a relationship that, while coming later in life, feels perfectly timed.
With both Atong and Sunshine free from past commitments, their relationship has been widely celebrated. Netizens have commended their openness, seeing it as a refreshing break from the secrecy often surrounding high-profile relationships.
