Philippine political gossip


to understand politics here, you have to know that all the "families" are related in one way or another.

So when we read the lovely Korina (ABS CBN reporter/celebrity) is being married, one discovers she is marrying a VP candidate. But there is more:


MANILA, Philippines—One of the five godfathers in the long-planned but scaled-down wedding of Sen. Manuel “Mar” Roxas II and broadcast journalist Korina Sanchez is Sen. Benigno “Noynoy” Aquino III...

The best man is Paolo Roxas, the groom-to-be’s teenage son by an earlier relationship.

As is widely known, Aquino is Sanchez’s ex-boyfriend. He is also the standard-bearer of the Liberal Party, and Roxas is his running mate
