Bulakan, Bulacan, Vice Mayor Patrick Meneses is showing nothing but support for ex-girlfriend Ara Mina’s marriage to Dave Almarinez; they tied the knot just last Wednesday, June 30.
Meneses, who was invited to the wedding in Baguio City, penned a heartwarming open letter to the newlywed couple on July 1 via Instagram.
“We hardly ever come across a love that is unconditional & so committed to each other, transcending the test of time and growing even stronger through trials,” Meneses said.
“I am honored to have witnessed such promising love that you both shared during this memorable occasion. Wishing you both all the best & a Happy Ever After!” he added.

The post came with several photos from the ceremony, including those of him together with the couple. Meneses also had photos of him with his 6-year-old daughter with Ara Mina, Mandy, who was also all smiles during the wedding.
Netizens including fellow celebrity Geneva Cruz seemingly appreciated Meneses’ sweet message for his ex-girlfriend, with many of them leaving heart emojis via the comments section.

One netizen with the handle @chopper_the_junior, meanwhile, said, “Ay grabeee love this sana all ganyan [napakaganda siguro] walang bitterness (Wow, love this. I hope everyone is like this, without bitterness).”
Alamarinez, Ara Mina’s non-showbiz husband, is the president and chief executive officer of the state-run Philippine International Trading Corp., with the rank of undersecretary.
Ara Mina and Almarinez got engaged only last January, something the actress described as “the most perfect gift from God.” /ra
