Check out mommy Rufa Mae Quinto's journey to get her sizzling hot body back.
The speculations about Rufa Mae’s pregnancy started when TV personality Grace Lee posted this photo with the comedienne last August 2 on Instagram. Several news website and gossip columns claimed that Grace edited her caption from the original post that read: "Nothing better on this rainy afternoon than pigging out with this glowing pregnant lady."
Rufa shared this photo of her and fiancé Trevor Magallanes in Marco Polo Hotel Ortigas last August 5, Rufa Mae was wearing a cute body hugging hooded top.
Rufa Mae was then spotted at the gender reveal party for the baby of Mariel Rodriguez and Robin Padilla held at Le Jardin restaurant at Bonifacio Global City on August 13, 2016. The sexy comedienne is wearing a black slit dress for the occasion.
Three days after (August 16), netizens got curious when Rufa Mae posted on Instagram some of her photos where she attended the birthday celebration of Alice Dixson in Marco Polo Hotel.
Netizens who have been used to seeing Rufa Mae in a sexy outfit were surprised to see the Kapuso comedienne in a flowy dress similar to a maternity dress.
On August 19, she was then spotted at the opening of a new restaurant owned by her good friend Fabio Ide.
Again, many noticed that she was wearing a flowy floral dress at the event.
Rufa Mae’s latest Instagram post on August 22 provided hints on what is her real condition. One striking clue is what she wrote in the caption of her photo. She wrote, “Salamat po mga friends sa pag support sa next chapter ng pag kababae ko, sa pagiging pamilyadong buhay ko, excited ako kahit nag gain ako ng weight. Ok lang at least, panahon na para kalimutan ko muna [ang] sarili ko at ang haharapin ko ay buhay ilaw na ng tahanan.”
Rufa Mae Quinto finally admitted in an Instagram post last September 18 that she is indeed pregnant with her first baby.
Pregnant or not, Peachy is definitely a sexy and confident beach babe.
The comedienne's closest friends and family organized a baby/bridal shower, just days before her wedding.
Rufa Mae married Trevor in November 25, 2016 at the Blue Leaf Cosmopolitan, Libis Quezon City.
In the early part of January 2017, Rufa Mae was rushed to the hospital. She shared, “Totoo ang kasabihan na you are risking your life pag preggy , natakot ako ninerbyos Pero bandang Huli... I told myself, I have to be strong for my daughter @alexandriamagallanes ... sa tulong ng asawa ko, naging mas madali kanina naka recover kami agad ng anak ko.”
Rufa Mae and Trevor welcomed Baby Alexandria into their life on February 17, 2017.
After giving birth to Baby Alexandria, Rufa Mae immediately lost 40 lbs in a month. This served as her motivation to get back to her summer body soonest.
Former 'Bubble Gang' star Rufa Mae Quinto has been consistently working out after giving birth last February 2017 to lose the extra weight.
The award-winning comedienne recently shared on Instagram the result of all her hard work to return to her pre-pregnancy body.
Rufa Mae Quinto shared an emotional post on Instagram about the hardship she had to go through after giving birth. She talked about her postpartum depression and the struggles of losing the extra weight. Quinto said, “Grabe, ang feelings ko when I see myself in the mirror after giving birth, sabi ko 'anyare?' Post partum begins I cry everyday. (Kung anu-ano feelings ko) Nag-migrate kami sa states. Ang macho ko na, nakaka lalake ang body ko sa laki ko, 80+ lbs na-gain ko. Tapos na-miss ko career ko, lahat kayo na-miss ko especially myself!”
Now, the award-winning comedienne is ecstatic to show her progress to her fans. She also stated in her social media post that all the sacrifices were worth it. "...May ka palit naman to. I told myself, I've been into myself 38 years of my life... Pero after giving birth sabi ko, 'oh well... time to shine...' This Valentines, I will start to focus with myself... keeping my mind body and soul healthier.”
