Ian De Leon To Be A Father For The First Time As He Turns 40

IAN DE LEON considers it to be a big blessing to be in “Baker King”, where he plays Mark Neumann’s protector. He’s glad to have work now that his girlfriend of seven years, Jennifer Ocrine, is four months pregnant. He used to be married to another girl but they didn’t have a child. Now, as he nears 40, he finally becomes a father. His younger siblings with dad Christopher de Leon and stepmom Sandy Andolong, have actually become fathers at a much younger age than him.

“Ganun pala ‘yun? Grabe, sobrang saya ko talaga. Wow, ang tagal kong hinintay ito kaya excited na akong ma­ging ama. It doesnt’ matter kung boy or gil ang ibigay sa amin ng Panginoon, as long as malusog siyang bata, okey sa akin. Iba pala talaga ang pakiramdam kapag alam mong isang pamilya na kayo.”
Does he intend to marry Jen? “Yes, we plan to have a civil wedding muna. Bukod nga sa pananganganak ni Jen, ‘yung kasal namin ang talagang pinagha­handaan ko. Kaya, malaking bagay sa akin ang pagda­ting nitong ‘Baker King’. I really have to work harder now.”
