The Philippine President’s Ex-Girlfriends

The 51 year-old balding bachelor who happens to be the president of the Philippines has actually had 18 girlfriends.

Depending on the kind of man you are, 18 could be sweet or dry as a desert. But really, this number is not what makes the President Noynoy Aquino’s love life so special. It’s the fact that some of them are popular and beautiful women in the Philippines. Here are three of them.

1. Shalani Soledad 

A 30-year old politician and TV host. She dated Aquino for two years from 2008 to 2010.

2. Korina Sanchez

A 46 year-old Filipina broadcast journalist, Korina is now married to Mar Roxas, a former senator and grandson of a former Philippine president - Manuel Roxas.

3. Bernadette Sembrano

Also a broadcast journalist, the 34 year-old Sembrano is co-owner and founder of a bookstore specializing in hard-to-find books in Quezon City, which she formed with colleagues in Philippine media and former classmates in college. She is married to Emilio Aguinaldo III, grandson of the first president of the Philippines, Emilio Aguinaldo.

All the president ex-girlfriends make you think Filipino women really go beyond physical looks, regardless of where they are in life.
