Jennylyn Mercado Chooses Not To Attend Wedding Of Ex-Bf Patrick Garcia So As Not To Steal The Limelight From His Bride, Nikka Martinez

PATRICK GARCIA finally tied the knot with live in partner Nicole "Nikka" Martinez last Saturday, March 21, at Blue Baby Leaf in Paranaque, and ex-GF Jennylyn Mercado was a no show even if she earlier signified her intention to attend the affair. But she sent their love son, Alex Jazz, to be the ring bearer in his dad's wedding. Patrick and Nikka's own daughter, Chelsea, was the flower girl and she was also celebrating her first birthday on that day.

Someone close to Jennylyn says she cannot be blamed if she decided not to attend the affair. "Siempre, moment yun ni Patrick and naging misis niya," says Jen's friend. "Ayaw naman niyang makaagaw pa ng eksena from them kung sakaling pupunta siya roon, kaya yung anak na lang nila ang pinapunta."

Honestly, we think it's a wise decision. No matter what people say, it's not in good taste for a guy's ex to attend his wedding to another woman. We're sure they'll just all feel uncomfortable. As for Patrick and NIkka, here's our best wishes for a long and lasting marital life. Cheska Garcia, Patrick's older sister who's married to cager Doug Kramer, says she's personally happy for Patrick as Nikka reformed him from his easygoind ways as a bachelor and brought him closer to the Lord.
