"Dearest Tita Aster,
How are things in Manila? Hope everyone is well and things are okay. I have been so busy here with Fashion TV. This time of year is always fun with many activities and socials.
FTV have been sponsoring a lot of fashion shows featuring Turkish designers with their summer collection, beach/resort wear as well as Betsy Johnson of New York’s fall collection.
I have also been scouting around for the perfect pre-school for Lorin. She starts pre-school part time in September as she will be turning 3 in August. Grabe how fast time flies no!!!
The whole family will be flying into Istanbul for a week long grand vacation...the first in many years. The last one was in 2000 when I hosted the Millennium Show at Walt Disney World in Orlando. Of course the trips in LA don’t count because the US is like our second home. It will be the first time for my brothers to see where I live and experience the Turkish culture so I’m really excited!
Richard and Raymond will be staying at a hotel with other friends from London and Los Angeles (syempre may datung sila...mga sosy!!) while my other 3 brothers, Mom and Dad will be staying with me at home. They want to wake up in the morning and play with their apos...not because of me I’m sure!!!
Please look out for the New Calayan Surgicare ads featuring me and my mom in all of Metro Manila.
The main purpose why everyone is flying in is because my sister-in-law will be getting married at the Ciragan Palace (one of the most luxurious and historical palaces in the world where the Ottoman Empire first lived). There will be a lot of pre-wedding parties leading up to the event so it will be fun!
On June 11, everyone flies back to Manila. My gosh ang gulo siguro namin sa plane!! Will stay for 10 days and go straight to the States for a month long vacation.
More kwento next time okay?
The photos attached are the ones I have taken from the Bollywood On The Bosphorus Charity Gala last week-end. We raised funds for different charitable institutions helping sick children nationwide. I hope to do more charitable works when I go back to Manila.
Take care tita and will send more pics soon!
Love,
Ruffa
"Hindi ko yata matatanggap kapag nalaman ko na bading pala ang mister ko. Ang case naman ng anak ay iba, siguro makukuha ko siyang tanggapin at suportahan at mahalin pa rin dahil anak ko siya," pahayag pa ng award-winning actress.
