MANILA, Philippines ? Actor and Quezon City councilor Alfred Vargas is ?very happy? and relieved that he could finally publicly reveal that he is a family man.
According to PEP, which sourced the story from Ricky Lo?s interview with Vargas for ?Startalk TX? held June 1, the actor-politician said that he kept things under wraps upon the request of his wife, Yasmine Espiritu?s family.
?Gusto ko talaga sabihin from the start, pero yun nga, gusto nila private. Hindi naman kasi showbiz si Yas, at alam mo naman baka maintriga pa kaya mas mabuti ngang private na lang muna,? Vargas explained.
As what Vargas told Lo, he married Espiritu in a civil wedding ceremony at the Supreme Court of the Philippines in August last year. The couple revealed that Espiritu was already pregnant then, and that she gave birth to their child, Alexandra Milan, in Italy on Oct. 23.
However, Vargas stressed that they never really ?hid? their relationship in that their families, his ABS-CBN TV series ?Mutya? co-actors, and other friends and acquaintances knew about it.
?Pero siyempre at this point, ?I?m a public figure and I would like to thank you for giving me, or my family the opportunity na para masabi ko rin na I?m proud I?m married and I have a very beautiful wife, and I will love her forever and we?re happy family,? he expressed.
Vargas added that he?s ready to give up his showbiz career for his family, adding that ?at this point in my life, I think everything is perfect.?
He disclosed his plan of marrying Espiritu in church in 2012. Apparently, the two had scheduled their church wedding for March this year, but pushed the date back in deference to the death of Vargas? father last January.
