With the permission of John's sister, Chin, I used her snap of their family in today's column. It was taken on November 21 after the school play ("A Christmas Carol") of John and Pri's daughter, Anechka. With them in the picture are John's son (Yuan), his mother (Lilia), Anechka, Chin and her husband Buck and their kids, Zach and Zoe.
John and Pri remain to be hands-on parents to their unica hija, who is wise beyond her years. Even if they are taking a break from being husband and wife, their being a mom and dad to Anechka goes on and on.
Since I'm close to John and Pri, I really hope that it's just "Time Out" and not "Time's Up" for them.
Sometimes couples have to be apart for a while to truly appreciate what they had together.
Louie Heredia on Miss U 'BTS'
While we all woke up early on a Sunday to catch the Miss Universe (Miss U) pageant live telecast on TV, my dear friend, Louie Heredia, was at the venue itself.
