Fans of actress Bea Alonzo were surprised and excited after reports surfaced that she may soon tie the knot with her boyfriend, businessman Vincent Co, following the appearance of their names in a church marriage banns announcement.
The names of the couple reportedly appeared in the marriage banns of St. Peter the Apostle Parish, which was seen during the parish’s livestream on March 8.
The document listed the couple using their full names:
- Ferdinand Vincent Pe Co – Groom
- Phylbert Angelli Escalante Ranollo – Bride
Ranollo is the real name of Bea Alonzo.
Marriage banns are public notices traditionally announced in Catholic churches before a wedding. They are usually posted for three consecutive weeks to inform the community and ensure that no legal or canonical impediments exist before the marriage takes place.
Despite the buzz online, a source close to the actress’ family reportedly said the couple’s wedding is believed to be planned next year, though no official details have been confirmed.
What is known, however, is that Co has already grown close to Alonzo’s family. He is often present at family gatherings, including a recent family day at the home of Bea’s mother, Mary Anne Ranollo, in Greenwoods Village, Pasig City, where he was reportedly in attendance.
News of the marriage banns quickly spread on social media, prompting excitement among fans who have long expressed support for the couple.
Many followers noted that since the two were first linked romantically, supporters have frequently commented that the actress and businessman appear well matched.
As of now, neither Alonzo nor Co has released an official statement regarding the marriage banns or possible wedding plans.
