Ria Atayde and Zanjoe Marudo are expecting their first baby
Actress Ria Atayde announced her pregnancy in her Father’s Day greeting for her husband actor Zanjoe Marudo.
Ria and Zanjoe got married last March. This was a month after they announced their engagement. After the wedding, rumors surfaced that the actress was already pregnant. However, in an interview, Ria’s sister Gela Atayde debunked the pregnancy speculations but she said that the couple is trying to have their first child but it would be difficult since Ria has PCOS.
However, pregnancy rumors involving Ria and Zanjoe continue to linger in showbiz circles. Last April, veteran entertainment insider Cristy Fermin said on her program that her source revealed that Ria was already three months pregnant.
On June 16, as the world is celebrating Father’s Day, Ria Atayde wrote a heartfelt greeting for her husband.
“To the dad you already are and the dad I know you’ll be. Love you @onlyzanjoemarudo, so excited for this new chapter with you [white heart emoji]. Happy first Father’s Day!” the wife of Zanjoe Marudo wrote in her post.
Ria shared her photos with Zanjoe taken while they were on the beach. In one photo, the actress was emphasizing her bump and the actor was standing by her side with open arms.
Many celebrities and fans expressed love and support for the couple who will soon become parents. Some also expressed excitement for this new journey in the life of Ria and Zanjoe as a married couple and as parents to their first child.
Meanwhile, back in 2023, Ria Atayde shared her thoughts on the “playboy reputation” of Zanjoe Marudo. The actress pointed out that she has known the actor for a long time now and that speculations about him do not bother her at all. Ria said that Zanjoe is trustworthy and sincere.
