Marian Rivera – “the most beautiful woman in the Philippines” has had a thorny path, not just a
bed of roses as many people think.

Mentioniny Southeast Asian showbiz in general and the Philippine entertainment industry in
particular without mentioning Marian Rivera is a big mistake. Although she has encountered
many controversial events, fans always give the actress a special place.

Deserving the title of the most beautiful “land of a thousand islands”

Marian Rivera is of mixed Spanish and Filipino descent. Marian’s parents separated quite early.
After the divorce, Marian’s mother took her daughter to the Philippines to live with her

grandparents. Although her father was not around, Marian was fortunate to receive the
protection and love of her maternal family and her mother who was devoted to her children.

Marian Rivera possesses a beauty that is a mixture of European and Asian, both sharp and
feminine. She has big, deep eyes, a high nose bridge and a radiant smile. That is why the public
and the media still favor Marian with the title “the most beautiful woman in the Philippines”.
Although she was famous for her beauty since she was a child, Marian did not rush into showbiz
too early. It was not until she graduated from university that Marian entered the entertainment
industry as an advertising model.

In 2005, people were surprised to see model Marian Rivera continuously appearing as an actress
in low-budget television projects.

Since her collaboration project with actor Dingdong Dantes (who later became her partner)
in Dancing Wild , Marian Rivera emerged as a rough diamond in the Philippine entertainment
industry.

Scandals that come out of nowhere

In October 2016, an unfortunate incident happened to Marian, seriously affecting her image.
During a performance at a children’s event, the female star accidentally slipped her skirt,
resulting in her bust being completely exposed to the eyes of hundreds of spectators and
camera lenses.

Although this was just an unwanted incident, the rumors still seriously affected this beauty.

After that unfortunate incident, the beauty born in 1984 publicly apologized, affirming that she
would never make such a mistake again. However, one thing was not over, another happened.
Marian faced a huge wave of controversy when she acted in a children’s film and wore an
extremely offensive outfit.

Besides. Marian s reputation plummeted when the sensitive video chat was exposed. it was only
when there was evidence that it was just a photoshopped image that the incident calmed down.
So Marian had to endure the injustice for a long time.

The actress herself has never opened up asout this matter. Even when she was slandered and
criticized, the beauty still chose to remain silent, not trying to explain the negative rumors but

always focusing on her efforts and using actions to prove her innocence.

A happy marriage with a handsome actor

Marian is a very private beauty. Besides her husband Dingdong Dantes, the actress has never
revealed any other boyfriends. Dingdong and Marian’s love probably blossomed from the first
time they worked together on the set of Wild Dance . But it wasn’t until 2 years later that the two
officially fell in love.

After 4 years of dating, Filipino fans witnessed the most impressive marriage proposal in the
history of domestic showbiz right on live television by actor Dingdong.
