Mimi also shared a heartfelt letter, stating, “I wanted to pour my heart out in this handwritten letter because I know our fans must have been really taken aback by the news. I’ve found someone I want to spend the rest of my life with. Through all the ups and downs, he’s been by my side, giving me unwavering support and strength. He’s the one who helps me mature and guides me toward making good choices.”
In the Second House preview aired on July 13th, the couple appeared together, holding hands, and revealed that they have been together for four years.
