Andi Eigenmann postpones wedding with Philmar Alipayo due to Jaclyn Jose's death

MANILA, Philippines — Celebrity couple Andi Eigenmann and Philmar Alipayo announced the postponement of their wedding because of the sudden passing of veteran actress Jaclyn Jose. 

In an interview with the media, Andi said that their wedding was set this year, but they still mourn the passing of her mom, so they will postpone it. 

“Honestly, we wanted to get married this year. But under the circumstances, we decided to wait a bit. It was supposed to be for mom,” she said. 

"Slowly, I hope I will get there. But I know she is proud, she loves me, and her grandchildren, so I will focus on the good things, and my family,” she added.

As for her kids, Andi said that they are beginning to understand what happened to their grandmother. 

“It is touching. My two younger children, without having to explain, they understand the situation," she said. 

“We always go to Manila, so they always look for ‘Nanay.’ They really wondered. But now, I think they understand now. Which is weird, since they are so young,” she added. 

Jaclyn succumbed to heart attack last March 2. She was 60.
