Love story

Was doing some research for my term paper, and came across the story of what has got to be my favourite celebrity couple: Donita Rose and Eric Villarama.

They were childhood friends, their dads both worked at the same airbase. Eric is Donita's brother's best friend, but their families lost touch when Eric's family moved to Japan. Then one day, Donita's brother meets Eric in a Starbucks in California and ties are re-established. So romantic yeah, he (and his design company) moved to Singapore after he proposed to her near the Golden Gate Bridge in 2001 and Donita quit her job as an MTV VJ when they got married in 2003. The wedding was held at some scenic resort in California, with the beach in full view and everything.

shucks, even I think thats awfully sweet and almost too perfect to be true.

Donita was my favourite VJ! She was'nt bitchy like the rest. I've actually met Eric, he's a super duper nice guy, really warm and kind. Was at some volunteer programme at a secondary school, a self-esteem workshop. From the way he talks, I could see that he really believed in empowering the students and also that he was totally in love with Donita still. When we were supposed to write down what we wished we could be, he wrote down: "good husband and father". (Donita gave birth last year I think).

And they're both Christians! and they had a thanksgiving lunch rather than a press conference to announce the wedding. It's soooo nice to see two people coming together like that, brought together by God, with a relationship based on Christian values.
