Drew Arellano to Iya Villania on her birthday: 'Love you more than nap time'
Drew Arellano marked his wife Iya Villania's 39th birthday by honoring her on social media.
On Instagram, the "Biyahe ni Drew" host shared a carousel of photos of Iya with their five kids, Primo, Leon, Alana, Astro, and Anya, along with an appreciation caption, honoring her superb motherhood.
"Happy birthday to the Queen of Our Chaos!" Drew wrote.
"Raising five kids ain't for the faint of heart… It's for superheroes," he added. "And yet you do it without a cape."
On Iya's special day, Drew said that they will try and pause the "circus" and celebrate her instead, describing the "24 Oras" host as "the heart, the handyman, the sleep-deprived legend that keeps us all alive and happy."
"Love you more than nap time!" he added.
In May, Drew went viral on social media after he revealed that he underwent a vasectomy, a minor surgical procedure that is a form of male birth control that stops sperm from leaving the body.
Drew's decision to get a vasectomy, which he opened up about in 2023, was lauded by the Commission on Population and Development.
In January, Drew and Iya marked their 11th anniversary.
