— In a hilarious and heartwarming early morning interview on Unang Hirit, actor EA Guzman gave viewers a candid peek into his first night as a married man with Shaira Diaz—his wife of just one day.
The celebrity couple appeared on the show on Monday, the morning after their intimate weekend wedding in Cavite, where Shaira serves as a regular co‑host. The relaxed and genuine conversation left hosts and fans alike laughing and rooting for their love story.
Arnold Clavio, the long-running broadcaster and host of Unang Hirit, asked the newlyweds about their very first night as husband and wife—prompting a response that had everyone in stitches.
In her wedding vow, Shaira jokingly said EA would be overjoyed that night. The actress-host had previously been open about preserving her chastity until marriage, a choice they maintained during their 12-year relationship PhilstarGMA Network.
EA didn’t miss a beat. With a broad smile, he revealed:
“Ako, magiging honest ako ah, pero grabe ang ngiti ko talaga. Pero ‘yung first night, tinulugan ako.”
(Translation: “To be honest, I was smiling so big. But on our first night, she fell asleep on me.”)
He quickly clarified that he understood why—Shaira had awoken very early and even went live on the show on their wedding day, a sign of just how busy and emotionally charged the day had been PhilstarGMA Network.
Adding fuel to the laughter, Shaira chimed in cheekily, “It’s a scam,” resulting in more warm chuckles from the hosts and audience alike Philstar.
A Touching Start to Forever
That morning on Unang Hirit offered more than just laughter—it reflected the deep affection and shared humor that have carried EA and Shaira through 12 years together. Their wedding on August 14 in Silang, Cavite, surrounded by close friends, family, and GMA personalities, was both emotional and celebratory PEP.ph+1.
Notably, Roy Abunda, Arnold Clavio, and other notable figures were part of their special day, highlighting how deeply this union was respected and supported within their professional circle PEP.ph.
The Power of Waiting
Beyond the charm of their first-night anecdote lies a more poignant chapter: their commitment to celibacy before marriage. Reports confirm that the couple chose to abstain from intimacy until they tied the knot—an intentional and deeply respected decision for both Kami.com.ph – Philippines news.PEP.ph.
EA had previously shared that the first two years of their relationship were emotionally challenging. However, Shaira’s unwavering commitment—especially her words, “If you really love me, you will wait” (“Kung mahal mo talaga ako, hihintayin mo ako”)—made a lasting impact on him Kami.com.ph – Philippines news.LionhearTV.
A Lighthearted Moment, a Meaningful Bond
This lighthearted confession on Unang Hirit wasn’t merely comedic relief—it was a window into their enduring bond. Though the words “tinulugan ako” (cozying up with a sleeping partner) may sound casual, they reveal how comfort, trust, and unfiltered joy define their relationship.
And while Shaira’s “It’s a scam” interjection was playful, it also speaks to the warmth and mutual teasing that allows such candidness—togetherness that still feels fresh and natural even after over a decade.
Final Thoughts
EA Guzman’s unguarded smile and candid confession about his first night with Shaira Diaz remind us that love isn’t always grand gestures or dramatic moments. Sometimes, it’s just being able to hold someone who’s so comfortably exhausted they fall asleep.
Their story—from a 12-year courtship and strength in faith-based values, to a tender and laughter-filled first night—is both refreshing and inspiring.
Here’s to many more mornings filled with love, laughter, and perhaps a little extra sleep!
