Recently, on the show Celestified , Marian Rivera was unexpectedly asked about the first time she met her husband Dingdong Dantes. The audience was really curious about the love story of the two. Marian surprised fans when she shared her impression of her husband during their first meeting.

Accordingly, the audition for the movie Marimar was the first time Marian and Dingdong met. However, because she was so focused on the casting, the most beautiful woman in the Philippines did not pay much attention to her male colleague. Her only impression at that time was that he had a lot of beard.

“I decided to call him ‘goat’ because at that time, Dingdong’s beard was so long that he looked like a goat ,” Marian happily shared.

According to Marian, Dingdong was not her type at that time. So it was not love at first sight or love at first sight for her. In fact, this most handsome man in the Philippines made her feel disgusted.

“I don’t want to say I hated him at that time, but at that time, Dingdong was quite like my type of ‘annoying guy’. He wasn’t handsome in my eyes. At that time, I couldn’t imagine him being my husband, to be honest,” Marian shared.

But over time, Marian realized something special about Dingdong. Her initial impression of him faded. Marian realized that Dingdong was a kind and good-natured guy. When the actor tried to flirt with her, she was the one who fell for his sincere gestures.

Also on this TV show, when asked about having a third 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥, Marian expressed her desire to have a large family. But having another 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 depends on God’s will. She doesn’t want the couple to force this.

Up to this point, Marian and Dingdong have been married for nearly 8 years. The couple has 2 little angels, Zia and Ziggy. The two are currently one of the powerful couples in the Philippine entertainment industry. Information about this couple and their 2 little angels is very hot in the press.
