It’s not just the Olympic gold medals on the Men’s Gymnastic Floor and Vault that Carlos Yulo won but also the hearts of netizens who can’t help but gush over his relationship with his girlfriend, Chloe San Jose. Cheering on the benches and traveling with Carlos in international competitions — Chloe has been a solid rock when it comes to supporting our champion. Curious about how they met? Read on to learn more about the lovebirds.

It all started with a DM

In a TikTok video posted in 2022, the couple revealed their first conversation on X, where Chloe made the first move.

“Hi, I’m a fan po. Just came across your account and hindi na po kayo as active like before. I hope you’re doing well po. Stay safe. Godbless,” Chloe said.

“Anyway, I’m doing great here. Thank you. Ikaw din dyan ingat and Godbless,” Carlos replied, and the rest was history.

So, don’t be afraid to shoot your shot and slide into your crush’s DMs. You’ll never know if they will reply! As they always say, delulu is the solulu.

The distance made them stronger

Who said long-distance relationships never work?  They began their relationship long-distance: Carlos was training in Japan while Chloe was studying in Melbourne, Australia. Of course, it wasn’t always rainbows and butterflies, especially when you’ve got busy schedules. One was a pro athlete, and the other was a student — but the distance never bothered them anyway.

Together, at last

After two years of long-distance, the stars aligned, and the couple finally met for the first time when Carlos competed at the 31st Southeast Asian Games in Hanoi, Vietnam.

She’s as supportive as ever

From competitions around Asia to the 2024 Paris Olympics, you bet that Chloe’s going to be there.

“Sa partner ko na nag lalaan ng oras para maka-punta at ma-suportahan ako sa emotional at mental wellbeing ko at ma-make sure na nasa maayos akong kalagayan. Alam kong sobrang busy ka sa studies at work mo pero nandidito ka kasama ko para lumaban at matuto, maraming salamat mahal ko. Mahal na mahal kita Chloe,” Carlos wrote on his celebratory post when he competed at the Fig Apparatus World Cup in Doha, Qatar, where he took home a silver medal for vault and a gold medal in floor exercise.

Everyone’s gushing

I love how Carlos Yulo is never intimidated by Chloe’s height and even supports her for wearing heels. ❤️ Lord if this ain’t love I don’t know what this is pic.twitter.com/4J1Tcwv61S

Carlos is also supportive! He lets his partner express herself however she wants, and we all deserve to be loved like that. Due to the height difference and Chloe’s blonde hair, netizens also can’t help but compare the lovebirds with Dragon Ball’s Android 18 and Krillin. How adorable!

Again, this is your sign to send that DM to your crushie. Pagalawin mo ang baso.
