Angel and Phil: Couple With A Cause

Angel Locsin and Philippine Azkals player Phil Younghusband are not only bound by their love for one another, but by a common passion in helping other people as well.

Angel has been in the front line of relief operations whenever a disaster strikes the country such as when typhoon Ondoy hit Manila in 2009 and when the Visayas area was struck by typhoon Sendong just last year. Last week though, when a strong monsoon left the better part of Manila submerged in flood, Angel didn’t have to help the typhoon-struck victims alone because she was not only assisted by her celebrity friends Kris Aquino and Iza Calzado, but her sweetheart Phil also graciously lent a hand as well. Photos of their charity work during the relief operations have spread online.

Angel explained with a smile, “He didn’t have any other choice but to pack relief goods, too.” According to her, Phil was very willing to help when they went to the affected areas. “He was personally talking with the victims. He has that innate compassion to people.”

Did the gesture intensify her feelings for him? The beautiful actress didn’t even bat an eyelash and responded with a smile, “It’s leveling up (my feelings for him).

Meanwhile, the Azkals heartthrob said “I want to be there. I’m really sad about what happened to them [flood victims] and I want to help them with the simple things I’ve done.” But that doesn’t mean that his girlfriend’s expression of love would go unnoticed as he said, “I’m very happy and I’m very lucky to have someone like Angel to be in love with me."

Recall that although they were seen several times together the past year, the two only made their relationship official to the public last May 27.
