In one of Bela's blog posts, she shared how she practically "dragged" Dani to La Union in May 2017. Bela added, "I need to tell you all now that I was tipsy and didn't know they [Dani and Xavi] were talking near the bar of the resort we were in."
It's no surprise that the couple seem to love going to beaches together!
