BEA ALONZO: I'M REDISCOVERING MYSELF WITHOUT A PARTNER

The actress is excited to experience a white Christmas.

"It will be very different this year," Bea said. "I am going to Spain with my family, so I can bring my nephews and nieces there.

"It will be their first time to go to Spain with my brother and sister-in-law. My mom, from the time we were house-hunting, already went there to Spain with me. We are also spending Christmas in Andorra, so it will be a white Christmas for us.

"Then I'm going to London (United Kingdom) with my best friend, but my family will stay in Madrid."

It's also the first time for the Alonzo family to spend Christmas out of the country.

"Normally, we always spend Christmas here in Manila," Bea said. "Noche Buena is always here. Then, we leave after the holidays.

"It's our first time to spend Noche Buena out of the country. Then we will experience snow. So, it will really be cold."

Bea disclosed her plan for the holidays when she was introduced as the new image model of My Diamond, coming after the likes of Charo Santos-Concio, Kris Aquino, Heart Evangelista, Anne Curtis, Liza Soberano and Jinkee Pacquiao.

Bea owned her first diamond ring when her mom bought one for her after the success of the blockbuster hit, Cathy Garcia-Sampana's "One More Chance" (2007), opposite John Lloyd Cruz.
