Actor and television host John Prats is thankful for the opportunity to be a part of the “Happy Yipee Yehey” family.

Despite the gloom of the show’s impending end, Prats said he is glad he is for all the wonderful experiences he gained during the short time he spent with the ABS-CBN afternoon variety show.

“Ibang experience din ‘yung naibigay sa akin ng show na ‘yon,” he said.

Moreover, Prats also expressed his sincerest thanks to the show, which ran for almost a year, because it paved way for him to meet the love of his life, his co-host Bianca Manalo.

“Kung hindi naman dahil sa show na ‘yon, hindi ko makikilala si Bianca,” he said.

“Happy Yipee Yehey” is set to air its final episode this coming Saturday.

It will be replaced by “It’s Showtime”, which will premiere on February 6. – Report from Gretchen Fullido, ABS-CBN News
