Vloggers Cong Velasquez and Viy Cortez announced on Saturday, February 5, that they are expecting a baby boy.
The couple made the announcement through a gender reveal vlog released on Viy’s YouTube channel.
A helicopter passed overhead and released blue confetti from the skies as a way of confirming that their firstborn is going to be a boy.
“Inaasahan ko talaga boy. Ina-attract ko talaga boy kasi puro kami girl sa bahay. Tapos oh my God boy,” Viy said.
“Hindi ko alam kung ano ang mararamdam ko ngayon,” Cong, who admitted he also wanted the baby to be a boy, said.
Before the gender reveal, Cong and Viy made a survey on whether people think it’s a boy or a girl. They asked their family and friends in attendance as well as random strangers around the area.

Meanwhile, Cong’s dad made a speech at the gathering, encouraging the couple to get married soon.
“Ang masasabi ko lang sa inyo Kuya Cong at Viy, planuhin niyo na ang inyong pagpapakasal dahil ‘yung magiging apo namin sa inyo ay magiging legitimate na Velasquez na,” he said.
Cong, for his part, gave a message to their son whom they named Kidlat.
“Ang message ko kay Kidlat, nakikita ko naman anak na napaka-espesyal mo. Kasi mapapanood mo 10 years, 15 years from now, makikita mo kung paano namin ipinagdiwang ikaw,” he said.
It was in December 2021 when Cong and Viy announced that they were expecting a baby.
