MANILA, Philippines — Women romantically linked to actor and TV host Vic Sotto were seen at the same event recently, though it was uncertain if they spoke or greeted each other during the event.

Pauleen attended together with her daughters with Vic, six-year-old Talitha and Mochi, who just turned five months this June.

Guanio, meanwhile, came with her daughter Scarlet Jenine, who is about to turn 12 in August.

Pauleen and Pia were both Vic’s co-hosts in the country’s longest-running noontime show, “Eat Bulaga.” Apart from them, Vic also dated former “Eat Bulaga” co-hosts Christine Jacob and Coney Reyes, mother of Vic’s son, Pasig City Mayor Vico Sotto.

According to, Vic dated Guanio from 2005 to 2010. A year later, Guanio married businessman Steve Mago. That same year, Vic started dating Luna and in 2016, they tied the knot in St. James The Great Parish Church in Alabang. 

Vic was previously married to actress Dina Bonnevie from 1982 to 1986, which produced two children – the actors Danica and Oyo Boy Sotto. He also has a daughter, Paulina Sotto, with Angela Luz, daughter of National Artist for Visual Arts Arturo Luz.
