Toni Gonzaga is a well-known Filipino actress, television host, and content creator. She tied the knot with director Paul Soriano on June 12, 2015, in Taytay, Rizal. The couple has two children, Severiano Elliott, also known as Seve, and Paulina Celestine, fondly called Polly. Toni is also the older sister of actress and YouTube personality Alex Gonzaga.
As previously reported by KAMI, Toni marked her sister Alex’s birthday by sharing a thoughtful set of photos on social media that highlighted their close bond and the many memories they’ve shared over the years. She expressed her sincere hope that this year would be Alex’s best one yet. Alex quickly responded with love and a playful nickname for her older sister, making the exchange even more heartwarming. Their sweet and public interaction caught the attention of fans, who flooded the post with warm wishes and admiration for the sisters’ relationship.
Earlier, Toni addressed and firmly dismissed circulating rumors about her marriage to Paul Soriano during a TikTok live session, which netizens had linked to a viral blind item. She described the speculation as a complete waste of time and chose not to entertain the questions. The couple recently reaffirmed their strong commitment to each other by renewing their vows during their 10th wedding anniversary celebration in 2025, marking a decade of love and partnership.
