Melissa Ricks finally reveals her boyfriend Charles Togesaki to public. The couple recently attended the 8th Star Magic Ball held at the Makati Shangri-La Hotel last Saturday, September 6, 2014.
The 24-year-old former Star Circle Quest finalist gamely posed during the red carpet of the star-studded event along with her non-showbiz boyfriend.
Meanwhile, Melissa Ricks noted in a sideline interview with ABS-CBN News’ Gretchen Fullido on Tuesday, September 9, 2014 that they are putting off their plans to tie the knot in due time since they are busy preparing for their first child. She is expected to give birth four months from now.
Melissa Ricks shared that she is having a hard time to adjust with her pregnancy. Although her doctor told her to have enough time to rest and sleep, she insisted that it’s not okay for her just to stay at home. She also opened up about going out regularly but setting some limitations prior to her pregnancy.
Ayoko rin naman na magmukmok sa bahay, bed rest, mga ganyan,” she said. “Siyempre it’s also good for the baby that I do the regular things that I do — I walk around, have fun, make myself happy, para happy rin si baby,’ di ba? Na-pi-feel ni baby kung ano na-pi-feel ko,” she said.
Their baby will be the first grandchild of both families. In her previous interview, Melissa Ricks said that Togesaki family was thrilled over her pregnancy. She confirmed that she is pregnant with Charles Togesaki last July 30, 2014.
