ALICE DIXSON AND GLENDA GARCIA WILL JOIN FORCES TO BRING DOWN GABBY CONCEPCION AS OUR PRESIDENT IN 'FIRST LADY', STARTS ON FEBRUARY 14

ALICE DIXON joins the cast of “First Lady”, the sequel to the highly successful series “First Yaya” that catapulted Sanya Lopez to stardom. 


She will be joining forces with Glenda Garcia in trying to topple down Gabby Concepcion as the president of our country. 


Alice was last seen as the first wife of Dennis Trillo in the hit drama series, “Legal Wives”. 


In “First Lady”, she plays a lady lawyer, Atty. Domingo, a balikbayan from America. She and Gabby first met each other in America when they were both still students. 


They had a relationship before, but Gabby chose to return home to the Philippines and Alice was very bitter about it. She later returns to Manila when Gabby is now the president and applies for a job with Gabby’s office. 


Since she is a hotshot lawyer, Gabby as Pres. Glenn Acosta will hire her to work with his team as a political adviser. What Gabby does not know is that Alice has a hidden agenda. She wants to take revenge on him for leaving her before in the States and she teams up with Glenda Garcia to bring him down.


If you’d recall Glenda played the scheming reporter, Marni Tupaz, in “First Yaya”. She connived with Gardo Versoza as the Speaker of the House to besmirch the reputation of Gabby as the president, but they did not succeed. 


Now, Glenda as Marni is banned from entering the palace because of her past villainy, but with her cunning and crafty ways, she manages to ingratiate herself with Alice and she is able to return to the palace to sow intrigues anew. 


Doing lock in taping for Alice is such a big sacrifice as she is separated from her baby girl, Aura. 


“I miss her so much,” she says. “Lalo na ngayon, malaki na siya, very responsive na. Mas nakaka-miss na. Sa second leg ng taping namin, baka isama ko siya sa taping kung papayag ang GMA, para hindi namin sobrang ma-miss ang isa’t isa.”


The first leg of their taping was shot in Thunderbird in La Union and in Ascott Hotel in Makati. The second leg will be shot in a resort hotel in Rizal. Glenda said she had a great time with Alice, with whom she did a lot of scenes together. 


“Magaan siyang kasama sa set,” says Glenda. “Nagkukuwentuhan kami in between takes. We had fun kasi maganda ang rapport namin at ang batuhan namin ng aming lines. 


"We’re both looking forward to our second lock in taping at hopefully, tuloy-tuloy na ito hanggang sa ending na ng season na ito ng show. I am very thankful to GMA-7 for giving me the chance to also be a part of “First Lady’. 


"Kasi I really enjoyed working with Gabby Concepcion and Sanya Lopez when we did ‘First Yaya’. We’re all praying now that ‘First Lady’ will be as big a hit as the first season para magka-season three rin.”


“First Lady” will start airing on GMA Telebabad on Valentine's Day, February 14. It will be replacing Heart Evangelista’s successful drama, “I Left My Heart in Sorsogon”, that will have its last telecast on February 11.
