With a massive career, top-notch beauty and a perfect marriage, Marian Rivera is the ideal model for millions of women, but her life has also experienced many ups and downs that have caused her career to falter many times.
The hidden scandal behind the gentle image of the top beauty of the Philippines
Marian Rivera was born in 1984 with Spanish and Filipino blood in her. After her parents divorced, she followed her mother to her mother’s hometown in the Philippines to live and develop her career. Her lovely face and sweet mixed-race beauty opened up an extremely favorable path for the beauty to enter the entertainment industry since 2005.

Although she has not attended any acting training courses, Marian has still successfully captured the hearts of the audience with her natural and natural acting style. Not only has she affirmed her talent through blockbuster movies, but the 8X beauty has also been hailed by the Filipino people as a symbol of perfect beauty and the title of “most beautiful woman in the Philippines” has long been associated with her name.
However, because she has become a “national treasure” and has received much attention from the media and the public, Marian has had to get used to a life of excessive scrutiny. Despite her efforts to maintain her jade-like image, Marian cannot avoid incidents and false rumors that are intended to damage her reputation.
The scandal that is considered the biggest and most influential to Marian’s career is the incident of her breasts being exposed during a children’s show in October 2016. While the beauty was dancing enthusiastically on stage, her outfit suddenly betrayed her, exposing her bust to a large audience and many media cameras below. Marian then quickly turned back inside and adjusted her outfit.
After the performance, Marian apologized, claiming that this was an unforgettable accident and promised to never do it again. But this action of the beauty could not appease public opinion. Many people, mostly parents, rushed to attack the “first beauty of the Philippines” for her lack of care in choosing her outfit, especially in a program for young children. Taking advantage of the unfavorable situation for Marian, anti-fans rushed to “dig up” past images of the actress to make a topic of discussion.

This is not the first time Marian has been involved in a scandal. There was a time when the Philippine public was in an uproar when the press published images that were said to be cut from a sensitive chat of the beauty, along with many criticisms of her loose lifestyle. It was not until people proved that the photo was a product of photoshop that the public began to forgive Marian, but the damage to her reputation during that time could not be compensated.
Because they could not find any flaws in Marian’s talent or beauty, people started to criticize her attitude. After a series of news reports “accusing” the beauty of often having a grumpy attitude towards her staff and a clip recording her arguing with an elderly person was posted online, people started talking about her with harsh words such as arrogant, two-faced, bad woman…
Facing the storm, Marian still kept her calm. Although she did not understand why people always had animosity towards her, the beauty did not pay too much attention to the negative things and focused on improving herself and doing her job well. Perhaps Marian’s gentleness when facing rumors and her attitude of respecting the audience and knowing how to correct her mistakes meant that those scandals, no matter how big, did not damage her reputation much. The proof is that now, at the age of 34, Marian still holds the title of “the most beautiful woman in the Philippines”, with a stable career and a perfect marriage that makes everyone jealous.
No matter how brilliant the title of “first beauty” is, it cannot compare to the peace with her husband and children
Marian and Dingdong Dantes fell in love with each other when they co-starred in Wild Dance in 2007. The two became the most beloved “golden couple” in the entertainment industry right after making their relationship public. In 2014, Dingdong brought his fairy tale love story to a happy ending with a sweet proposal right on Marian’s TV show.

Marian and Dingdong’s “royal wedding” was broadcast live, becoming the center of attention of the entire media and public at the end of 2014. The presence of the President of the Philippines at the wedding proved the “huge” reputation of the most powerful couple in the entertainment industry. A year later, Marian and Dingdong happily welcomed their first daughter, Zia.
Since getting married, Marian has temporarily put her acting career on hold and only maintains her own TV show. She spends most of her time taking care of her small family and hopes to have more children. Occasionally, the beauty still updates her personal life on Instagram and receives many admiring comments from the online community.
Now, for Marian, family is everything to her. Every morning when she wakes up and sees her husband and children sleeping next to her, she is a peaceful happiness that cannot be exchanged for anything. “Every morning when I wake up, I can look at my handsome husband sleeping soundly. Next to me is Zia, a chubby, adorable baby girl. Every time she smiles, it is wonderful. She is always happy. Thank God for giving me such a wonderful experience. This is truly a worthwhile life. I love my job, but every time I come home, I just want to see my husband and daughter,” Marian shared.
