But they are not. Enriquez’s wife is Lizabeth Yumping. They don’t have children.

Susan revealed that they are also not relatives. It just so happens that they have the same last name. According to her, she was the first one to join GMA in 1989 while Mike joined in 1995.

Recalling the instances they were mistaken as a married couple, she just quipped based on an interview with PEP, “Madalas kaming napagkakamalang mag-asawa. Idinadaan ko na lang sa ‘Ay, naku, kung asawa ko yan, hindi na ako magtatrabaho!’Hanggang ngayon, napagkakamalang mag-asawa kami.”
