A twin baptism

FUNFARE - Ricky Lo -
And finally, the baptism of Aga Muhlach and Charlene Gonzalez’s fraternal twins Antonio Andres and Atasha Aaron’s baptism, originally scheduled last Dec. 8 (Feast Day of the Immaculate Conception), was held the other day (Tuesday, Jan. 8) at 3 p.m. at the Parish of St. James The Great in Ayala Alabang, a stone’s throw from the family’s residence.

The twins, who turned two-months old last Jan. 5, were the center of attention and attraction, naturally, unwittingly stealing the thunder from their famous parents who didn’t mind being "eclipsed" at all.

The hush-hush affair, successfully kept from the nosey movie press, was a virtual reunion of the same people involved in the fairy-tale wedding of Aga and Charlene last May 28 in Baguio City, from the officiating priests, Bishop Crisostomo A. Yalung and Rev. Armand Tange, to the florist (Robert Blancaflor of 1816), the musicians (Tina Pasamba Strings) and even most of the guests, including Lipa City Mayor Vilma Santos who was among Aga and Charlene’s principal sponsors.

"We’re related several times over," joked Aga about Vilma because Aga happens to be a godparent of Vilma and Sen. Ralph Recto’s son Ryan Christian. "Kaya close relatives kaming dalawa ni Vi."

Aga considers 8 his lucky number. The ground-breaking of his mansion in Ayala Alabang was held on Dec. 8 which was also the birthday of his paternal grandmother, Concepcion Amador Fuentes.

Charlene looked as sexy as she used to be before she got pregnant, although she claimed that she had to shed a few more pounds. Besides his parents, Cheng Muhlach and Anita, Aga’s relatives were around and so were those of Charlene, led by her mom, Elvie Gonzalez.

The 16 godparents were Luis Philip "Lucky" Manzano, Albert Reyes, Vince Lauron, Dr. Abraham Pascual, Victor Tan, Ariel Arce, Bong Lopez and Anthony Manlongat; and Alyanna Carmela S. Martinez (daughter of Aga’s cousin Liezl and Albert Martinez), Joyce Bernal, Maribeth Bichara, Angelica Marie P. Ampil, Samantha Sadhwani, Berna Romulo-Puyat, Jerevi Hermogino Hughes and Cheryl Dioniso.

Reception was held at the Alabang Clubhouse.
