TOM RODRIGUEZ – The Kapuso Star confirmed that he is now a father to a four-month old baby boy who has a very meaningful name.
Countless people were left happy and inspired after Tom confirmed that he is now a father to a baby boy. Living a celebrity life for decades now, it is no secret to the public that the Kapuso actor went through a lot of challenges in the past few years which included his broken marriage.
In October 2021, Tom Rodriguez married his long-time girlfriend, Carla Abellana, at an intimate wedding ceremony at the San Juan Nepomuceno Parish Church in San Juan, Batangas. Their wedding gathered their closest family and friends which included many fellow celebrities in the showbiz industry.
Tom and Carla were together for several years already when they decided to officially tie the knot. They were on-screen partners as well. However, just over two (2) months since they became husband and wife, rumors that they have separated crossed the surface. Not long after it, it was confirmed that, indeed, the two celebrities have gone separate ways.
Tom Rodriguez flew to the United States amid the issues surrounding his separation with Carla Abellana. Their were rumors that a third party on his part caused the breakup as well as rumors that another sort of infidelity on his part was the root behind their separation. There were also questions on the gender preference of the Kapuso actor.
For over two (2) years, Tom was in the United States with his family and he also ditched the social media. When he got back, he admitted that his stay abroad was to recover from his separation with Carla saying that he now feels whole again.
Just a few months after Tom Rodriguez returned to the Philippines, there were rumors that the Kapuso actor already has a baby with his non-showbiz girlfriend. The mother of the baby is allegedly an American and the kid really got the look of his father.
Recently, Tom Rodriguez confirmed in an interview with GMA-7 News reporter Nelson Canlas that he already has a baby. The Kapuso actor is now a father to a four-month old baby boy who is named “Korben” by his parents. According to Tom, his baby’s name is an anagram of the word “broken”.
“‘Cause David’s covenant with the Lord was his broken soul and he brought it back to him, parang binuo niya uli, so Korben is an anagram for broken,” the Kapuso actor said.
Based on the post, Tom explained that he never really hid his baby as he does not want to do it but he just really wanted to keep it to himself. According to the Kapuso actor, if someone asks about his baby, he really responds and he happily shares about Korben at work.
“I feel great. He’s my greatest source of inspiration,” the Kapuso actor said.
It was in March when Tom Rodriguez admitted that he is seeing someone. Until now, the identity of his girlfriend remains a private thing amid the popularity of Tom.
