Our rapid-fire roundup of things happening in Philippine showbiz.
1. RHIAN AND KC CALL IT QUITS
Pep.ph just reported that Rhian Ramos and KC Montero have broken up but that it’s a “happy breakup,” according to Rhian. The two split ways after being a couple for one year and nine months. They remain friends and they keep in touch, with Rhian saying that they “do it by choice.” She emphasized how she wants to keep him in her life, which is why they still continue to see each other. As for the reason behind the split, the Genesis star thinks it’s not important for everyone to know about it “as long as they know it was a mutual decision.” She added that they both agreed on it and that there’s no bad blood between them.

Carlene Aguilar and Dennis Trillo may no longer be together but things are definitely okay between the two, especially considering the fact that they have a son, Calix. After breaking up in 2007, the two have been civil with each other and cooperative when it comes to raising their six-year old son. In fact, Carlene shared with Pep.ph that they both get to spend quality time with Calix, Dennis “borrowing” him every weekend. Carlene has nothing but good words for Dennis as a dad, describing him as someone who takes time to bond with Calix, and a spoiler. (Photo: dennistrillo Instagram account)

Senator Francis “Chiz” Escudero himself said that he and girlfriend Heart Evangelista are “headed towards marriage,” in an interview with Lynda Jumilla of ANC’s Beyond Politics. He shared that he doesn’t have any angst and that he still believes in marriage, despite a failed one with Christine Elizabeth Flores (they have twins), which was annulled last June 2012. “Gusto ko uli magpakasal,” he told AND. “I would want to settle again, have a complete family, and hopefully this time, kumpleto na talaga siya until death do us part.” Chiz also shared that they’ve been talking about it. “I don’t know when it will come, but we’re headed in that direction.” (Photo: iamhearte Instagram account)

Lea Salonga tweeted last Dec. 17 that she is “very slow to anger, until provoked.” Apparently, she’s been provoked, basing on all the passionate tweets she’s been uploading the last few days. “Isa sa pinaka-ayaw ko ay ang taong sobrang kapal kapal kapal kapal ng mukha. Huwag niyo na lang ako harapin, baka may dumugo. Ikaw yun,” she tweeted last Dec. 16, adding that her “ire is more than justified” and that her tweets aren’t for a basher but for “super kapal people claiming to be friends of mine.” Our favorite tweet? “Sana Makita na niya si Lord,” Lea said. We still don’t know who exactly this person is, but there’s an update from Lea: “After three days of venting, I am done.” (Photo: msleasalonga Instagram account)

Several companies decided to skip the annual Christmas party this year because of tragedies like Yolanda. However, some celebs still find a reason for us to celebrate Christmas this year. Dormitoryo star Enzo Pineda shared with Inquirer that Christmas means hope and that it’s not just about gift-giving. “Our attention should be on God. After all the tragedies we witnessed in the news, we should forget about sadness and focus on happiness and inspiration. The holiday season allows us to spend quality time with our loved ones in spite of our busy schedules.” Check out others’ answers here. (Photo: theenzone Instagram account)
