JAKE ROXAS was being built up by Viva Films then as a matinee idol along with other TGIS stars led by Bobby Andrews and Angelu de Leon, but something went wrong and his career didn’t blossom. He’s now back on ABS-CBN doing mature roles. “Una nila kong kinuha in ‘Magkano ang Iyong Dangal’, then in ‘Imortal’ at pangatlo ko na sa kanilang itong ‘Maria La del Barrio’ where I’m part of the more senior members of the cast like Assunta de Rossi, Angel Aquino, Gio Alvarez and Ian Veneracion to give support kina
Erich Gonzales and Enchong Dee.”
Jake admits he’s now married and has three kids aged 15, 10 and 9. “Sa isang nanay lang silang tatlo,” he adds, just like Ian Veneracion who also has three kids with his wife and so unlike co-star Gio Alvarez who has three kids but with three different mothers.
