Julie Anne San Jose and Rayver Cruz: The war between Hamas and Israel started on October 7. Julie Anne San Jose and Rayver Cruz were in Tel Aviv then. They would play at the Smolarz Auditorium at Tel Aviv University that night.
The two discussed their scary experience in a Fast Talk interview with Boy Abunda. They said it took them a while to understand they were in the middle of a combat zone.
When someone asked Rayver if he had ever thought about asking Julie to marry him, he gave a moving answer. “For me, everything happens for a reason,” he stated. “Julie gives me strength and hope.” There had to be a reason Julie and I were in the Holy Land simultaneously. I’m already married to her in my mind, body, and soul.
Julie Anne was moved by Rayver’s earnest plea, and he lightened the mood by saying, “But the Lord knows that we will make it home, and there’s still a chance for you to be the godfather.” She laughed.
I was supposed to sing at the “Luv Trip Na, Laff Trip Pa” show that day with Boobay, Julie Anne, and Rayver. But when Hamas started its morning attack campaign, things changed quickly.
Thank goodness, the Kapuso singers got home safely on October 9.
As things worsened, the Philippines raised the alert level over Gaza to Level 3. They also raised the alert level over Israel to Level 2, where 30,000 Filipino workers work.
