Tj Trinidad Finally Opens Up About His Quiet Wedding To Non-Showbiz Wife

THE HIGHLIGHT of “Showbiz Central” last Sunday was the interview with a Kapuso leading man who admitted “na nagpakasal na siya.” This turned out to be TJ Trinidad of “Kokak” who confessed that he married long time non-showbiz girl Margarita Valdez in Tagaytay recently.

When we visited the set of “Kokak” last Thursday, TJ refused to answer any questions about his wedding but he has obviously changed his mind about it. He said he and his wife are “both private individuals so we wanted to keep it intimate with only close friends and relatives invited. I also believe actors are more effective when people don’t know about their private lives.”

It was Raymond Gutierrez who interviewed him and TJ said he invited the Gutierrez clan (since Annabelle Rama is his manager), but it so happened their family was then vacationing in the States. He also invited Ogie Alcasid and Regine Velasquez but they also didn’t make it.

What did she like in Marga? “She’s a classic breed of beauty and breeding. She makes me laugh with her good sense of humor.” He added his wife is highly educated, having studied in the American University in Paris (where KC Concepcion also got her college degree) and has a master’s degree in economics. He said their wedding was very simple and they didn’t even have a wedding coordinator. “It was only Marga, his sister Bea and their mom who handled the whole thing,” he said. He thinks his being married won’t affect his career. “Viewers now are more intelligent,” he added.
