Salve A., let’s add to our list of showbiz celebrities reportedly getting married this year din the name of Nadine Samonte, contract talent ng TV5.
The lucky would be groom ni Nadine is Richard Chua, 36 years old at nag-iisang anak ng aktres na si Isabel Rivas.
Wala pang one year ang relasyon nilang dalawa. Pero, ayon kay Nadine, three months pa lamang mula nang sinagot niya ang binata, binigyan na siya nito ng engagement ring na, of course, kanyang suot.
At heto nga, kinukulit na siya ng binata. Kasundo raw niya si Isabel. At ganun din si Richard sa kanyang parents, ani Nadine.
Richard manages the farm nila ng kanyang ina na masasabing well cared, located in Iba, Zambales. Hindi lang daw dito mga punong prutas ang nakatayo, marami ring alagang iba’t ibang hayop.
And they are all part ng kanyang negosyo, na pinamamahala sa kanya ng kanyang ina.
Nadine was, at one time, linked to a son of a lechon establishment owner. Matagal din silang nagkarelasyon.
But as everyone knows, nauwi ito sa breakup.
Kung magpapakasal man sina Nadine at Richard, wala pang tiyak na buwan at date. Bagama’t we heard, it will be this year. Unlike Karylle, na this March na ang kasal sa band vocalist and leader ng Spongecola, si Yael Yuzon.
March din ang itinakdang kasal ni Miriam Quiambao, former Miss Universe runner-up, with her businessman boyfriend Ardy Roberto.
It is the second marriage for Miriam, who was formerly married to an Italian. Pero childless siya and her ex-husband.
May naman itinakda ni Jericho Rosales ang beach wedding nila ng kanyang Australian fiancée na si Kim Jones.
Preparations are ongoing na for their wedding.
June naman ang pagpapakasal for the second time ng widow (of the late TV host Pete Roa) na si Boots Anson-Roa sa kanyang mapapangasawang si Atty. King Rodrigo, also a widower.
June 14, which is the 75th birthday of Atty. King, ang kanilang kasal.
Boots turned 69 on her recent birthday nitong January.
July naman ikakasal ang director ng blockbuster film na Bride for Rent, still showing in theaters nationwide, na si Direk Mae Czarina-Cruz.
Her fiancé, whose name we failed na itanong, is a former classmate in high school. Based in the US, he is divorced from his wife.
May mga anak siya sa kanyang unang asawa na na-meet na ni Direk Mae, who is currently in New York, sa imbitasyon ng kanyang future husband.
Double congratulations and best wishes kay Direk Mae!
Kim feel nang magkaroon ng third movie kay Xian
Bagama’t currently busy with a new soap si Kim Chiu, ang Ikaw Lamang with Coco Martin and Julia Montes, she can hardly wait, she said, to do another movie with Xian Lim.
Since nga naman kasabihang, luck comes in threes, somehow daw, naniniwala siyang tulad ng Bakit Hindi Ka Crush ng Crush Mo? at Bride for Rent ay kikita rin sa takilya ang kanilang third movie together.
Na obviously ay pagbibigyan ng Star Cinema. Currently, the ‘‘powers†behind the film firm is cooking up a new project for them.
Abangan.
