It was only the mother of Heart Evangelista who walked her down the aisle
Heart Evangelista explained the reason why her father Rey Ongpauco was not present during her renewal of vows with her husband Senator Chiz Escudero.
Heart and Chiz have been together as a married couple for 9 years now. For their anniversary this year, the couple decided to have their renewal of vows. Their relationship is quite an open book to the public because of their social status. Heart is one of the most popular and most-followed celebrities in the Philippines while Senator Chiz is a well-known political figure.
It is known to many that their relationship went through a tough time last year. It was rumored that they broke up but eventually, whatever conflict they may had in their marriage, they were able to fix that.
Their renewal of vows was a trending topic on social media. The event happened in Balesin where Heart Evangelista celebrated her birthday on February 14 before that. The actress called this a “small but very special gathering.”
Following that intimate event in Balesin, a separate reception which will be held for friends at Cork Elite in BGC was scheduled on February 14. Heart was walked down the aisle by her mom Cecile Ongpauco.
Many netizens noticed the absence of Rey Ongpauco during the event. With this, a netizen directly asked Heart on Instagram why her father was not around during that special occasion.
The Queen of Creative Collaborations explained that her father was recovering. However, she did not further share anything about the health status of her father.
Meanwhile, Heart Evangelista is more focused now on her career in the fashion industry. She is creating her name in the international fashion scene. In a recent interview, the fashion icon shared an effective technique she uses in the fashion world and this is thinking that there is no competition because she just wants to showcase her fashion style.
