Lara Quigaman shoots down separation rumors with husband Marco Alcaraz

Former beauty queen Lara Quigaman took to social media to deny that she and her husband, actor Marco Alcaraz, have parted ways after reports that they had separated circulated on the internet.

On Instagram, the Miss International 2005 titleholder said that some of her friends saw a TikTok post that suggests she has taken a step away from something that does not give her worth, implying that it has something to do with her marriage.

“So a few friends were concerned and sent me a link to a TikTok post that’s been going around that has my picture, plays a sad song, and the caption that says, ‘Minsan Kailangan mo lumayo para makita mo ang tunay na halaga mo. Huwag ka matakot mag-isa kasi doon mo makikilala ang sarili mo.’ And so, some think that [Marco Alcaraz] and I separated. Hindi po,” she said.

Quigaman joked that the only time she asks to be left alone is whenever she goes to the restroom.

“Bakit ba kasi gusto nyo kami maghiwalay? [Never], at hindi ko po sinabi ang nasa caption, pero minsan lumalayo po talaga ako, nagla-lock ng door (sa CR) para mag-isa [laughing emoji], pero di para makilala sarili ko kundi para makatakas sa ingay ng bahay kahit 5mins lang [laugh],” she added.

In 2022, the 41-year-old actress-beauty queen expressed her disappointment over people who want other relationships to fail and who make celebrity breakups a joke.

“Recently, ang daming balita ng hiwalayan, away, etc. Nakakalungkot, pero mas nakakalungkot na maraming tao are making memes and jokes out of it. And what’s worse, others are waiting for other relationships to fail,” she said at the time.

Quigaman and Alcaraz tied the knot in a civil wedding ceremony in Vancouver, Canada, in 2011, and share three children.
