Who is the lucky guy? Sarasola is a former contestant in a local reality show and is the owner of a sports bar in Parañaque City.

The relationship doesn’t come as a complete surprise. The pair posted a photo in one of the swankiest places around the Metro on Valentine’s Day this year, Pep.PH reports.

Last year, Ozawa decided to stay in the Philippines “on a more permanent basis.” She is one of eight partners of the Singles Bar at Remington Hotel, which is within the Resorts World Manila complex in Pasay City.
