MANILA, Philippines – Musician Nica del Rosario will soon marry her partner, Justine Pena, in Australia.

Del Rosario on Thursday took on Twitter to share a snapshot of the sky through an airplane window.

“Off to get [married],” she wrote in the post’s caption.

The singer later revealed that she and Pena flew to Sydney, Australia for their upcoming wedding.

Contrary to the Philippines, same-sex marriage has been legal in Australia since 2017 – even for couples that are only tourist visa holders.

Del Rosario and Pena, together with fellow artist Jelo Mateo, were behind former Vice President Leni Robredo’s campaign song “Kay Leni Tayo” for the 2022 presidential race.
