Angeline has had a number of enhancements done on her face and body and she is satisfied and happy with how she looks.
Her life has always been an open book.
The “Star Power” grand winner has never made secret her being adopted.
Her Mama Bob adopted her when she was still very young.
“Kaya, masisisi nyo ba ako, if my life revolves around her now,” she said.
They used to live in Sampaloc together with Mama Bob’s family, but later transferred after Angeline became a mainstay on ABS-CBN shows.

Kris Aquino returns to the spotlight on August 15.
She will host the TV5 talk show, “Love Life With Kris,” to be directed by Gab Valenciano.
Gab, of course, is the son of Gary Valenciano and Angeli Valenciano. He is also a singer and dancer like his parents. His older brother, Paolo, also sings. Paolo also excels as a concert director.
For her first guests in “Love Life With Kris,” Kris wants to feature Pokwang, Ria Atayde, and K Brosas, who will also have a show on TV5.

K Brosas had an emotional moment with her daughter Crystal after the latter came out and admitted that she was a lesbian.
K said she was not surprised.
“Obviously, nahahalata na rin niya ito. Hinihintay lang niyang magtapat sa kanya si Crystal,” said someone close to the singer.
K refuses to talk about her daughter’s father. She singlehandedly supported Crystal when her former husband left them.

Unless the Covid-19 virus is contained, Alessandra de Rossi doubts that she will agree to start work on a new project under Viva Entertainment.
“Kung sabagay, sa October pa naman magsisimula ito. But still, ayaw kong magtrabaho, kung may coronavirus pa,” she said.
“Takot akong magkasakit. The idea pa lamang na posibleng ma-isolate ako for almost a month already scares me.”
Yet, Alessandra does not deny she is excited for her elder sister, Assunta, who is giving birth to her firstborn, a girl, in two months.
“Malaking blessing kasi si ate ko at sa whole family na finally magkaka-anak na siya,” said Alex. “Sixteen years niya ring hinintay ang blessing na ito.”
Assunta is married to ex-Congressman Jules Ledesma.
Jules has two elder children with his late wife.
“I will be her yaya,’’ Alex said. “I already volunteered for the job.’’
Alex, now 36, seems to have no plans of settling down. She is rumored to be in relationship with noted director Rico Gutierrez.
