In a surprising twist of events, Sharon Cuneta jumped in an online discussion started by a fan who was curious to know more about her past relationships.

Sharon used her personal account, April Mondragon, to clarify age-old speculations about her marriage with Gabby Concepcion. Her Facebook name came from her character in her very first movie Dear Heart where she was also first teamed up with her ex-husband.

The Mega Star cleared she was not pregnant when she married Gabby, saying, “It was at the backstage of Araneta Coliseum in July of 1984 at the dress rehearsals for my two-night concert, ‘Sharon Solo With the Boys.’ He already had the rings and I almost fell down the stairs and sinalubong niya ako, pababa ako! We had a secret civil wedding ceremony a few days after.”

“Which is why, I actually was so happy when I found out we were pregnant because then wouldn’t have to hide anymore,” she added.

Her parents later learned about their secret marriage and it was only then that they began planning for their Church wedding.

Fans also delved into how Sharon and Gabby’s marriage came to an end, and the Mega Star was brief in confirming that a third party was involved. Nonetheless, she also claimed she has forgotten about it and that she still believes that Gabby “loved me and I loved him.”

The series of screenshots from the viral thread ended with Sharon confirming on her official public account that she was really part of the discussion as April Mondragon.
