Melissa Ricks is pregnant

Congratulations to the Kapamilya star, who just confirmed that she is four months and two weeks preggers! The 24-year old, best known for being a finalist in the ABS-CBN talent search Star Circle Quest, shared with Gretchen Fullido of ABS-CBN News that she never really hid it; it’s just that no one asked about it.

How did she find out about it? After a trip to Boracay she thought she was suffering from food poisoning or overfatigue. She wanted to go to the doctor for a check-up but did not because she’s not fond o going to hospitals so she just let it pass. She didn’t even entertain the thought of being pregnant when she missed her period since she has irregular periods. However, when that happened again the next month, she then took a pregnancy test and once she saw it was positive, that was the only time she went to the doctor.

Everyone’s question is: who is the father??? She doesn’t want to reveal but she did share that they met last year. “He’s a good guy, happy ako sa kanya. He makes me very happy.” She added that just like hers, her partner’s family is very happy with the news especially because it’ll be the first grandchild for both sides.
