Melissa Ricks got married to her non-showbiz boyfriend, Michael Macatangay, in a ceremony in the US, attended by her family.

“Fun with family! Almost all my relatives are U.S. based. Glad to have celebrated with them,” the actress said in one of her Instagram stories yesterday, May 24. She showed a video of her dancing with her relatives in what appears to be a garden while she was in her wedding dress.

Ricks then showed a selfie of her and Macatangay wearing their wedding rings and another photo that showed them kissing in front of a wall of white roses, also through her Instagram Stories on the same day.

Ricks had been proudly discussing her life as a single mother through her social media accounts, and called Macatangay an “answered prayer” on his birthday in 2019.

The couple got engaged in August last year during an intimate gathering with the actress’ friends and family in Batangas.

Shortly after their engagement was announced, Ricks revealed that she had been praying for someone who is as God-fearing as she and who will love her and her daughter Kiera. She also recounted the day that she walked into church and met Macatangay.  /ra
