Beyond musical performances, the concert offered a candid glimpse into the couple’s personal lives.

KZ Tandingan shared her thoughts on motherhood, explaining, “Sabi ko kanina, ayokong maging nanay kasi napre-pressure na ako. Sinasabi kasi ng mga tao, ‘kailangan mong may [mag] alaga sa iyo pagtanda mo.’ Gusto kong maging nanay, kasi gusto kong maging nanay. 'Yung kaya ko nang alagaan 'yung anak ko — ayokong iluwal 'yung batang ito para lang pahirapan siya sa mundo dahil hindi ako prepared.”

TJ Monterde responded with support, emphasizing patience and faith. “It comes when it comes. Okay lang. Makakapaghintay. Kung bibigyan kami, thank God. Kung kami lang ding dalawa pang-habang buhay, okay lang din. Ayos lang 'yun. Kung ano ang will ni Lord sa aming dalawa, okay lang 'yun,”

The concert also highlighted the couple’s journey together over ten years, from saving for their dream home to Monterde’s ability to contribute more financially. He expressed gratitude for the success of his hit song “Palagi,” which has become a favorite for marriage proposals.

The “In Between” concert not only showcased Monterde and Tandingan’s musical talents but also celebrated love, connection, and personal growth, leaving fans with unforgettable memories.
