Double trouble for Marian
At the gathering for Blue Water Spa, Marian Rivera proudly told Rushes: “In spite of the intrigues, the companies I endorse have stood by me—like this spa, which is renewing my contract.”
Barely a month later, Dollywood reported that Marian would soon be replaced by her screen partner Dingdong Dantes’ ex-girlfriend Karylle as the spa’s image model.
Popoy Caritativo, Marian’s manager, insisted that the GMA 7 star wasn’t dropped. “[We] decided not to renew the contract, which ends in May. We didn’t agree with the company on several matters.” And the K factor? “It’s beyond our control who they pick,” he said.
