Aubrey Miles is giving birth any day now to her and Troy Montero's (Cody Miller) first baby and they're expecting a baby boy whom they plan to name Hunter Cody Sandel Miller. Cody is Troy's real name while Sandel is Aubrey's real family name.

Unknown to many, Aubrey and Troy are not yet married but they're now working on the baby's documents for him to become an American citizen because Troy (Cody) is an American citizen.

Any marriage plans?

"Actually, may plano kami to get married but it's not going to be soon. Maybe next year or the following year. Gusto ko munang magpapayat nang husto dahil gusto kong sexy pa rin ako kapag ako'y ikinasal," she laughs.

Why isn't she giving birth in the U. S. ?

"Mas gusto ko rito. Marami kasi ang dadalaw sa `yo. Although naroon ang family and cousins ni Cody (Troy), iba pa rin dito kasi narito ang family ko, relatives and friends. "

Does she get along well with Troy's family?

"I don't have any problem sa family ni Cody. Mahal ko sila at mahal din nila ako and they're so excited to see the baby kasi first apo nila ito kahit sa side ng cousins ni Cody tapos boy pa. Cody's mom is coming home by the end of September dahil akala niya na last week of the month pa ako manganganak. Cody's family is very excited," relates Aubrey.

Aubrey told us that Troy is currently busy along with his friends and business partners in putting up a post-production house.

A PROJECT FOR ROBIN AND BROOD

Robin Padilla has three lovely daughters - Queenie, Kylie and ZhenZhen and only son, Allih by wife Liezl Sicangco-Padilla. While all parents want the best for their children including education, Robin can't stop Kylie and now Queenie from entering showbiz although he reiterates that education should be given top priority.

Kylie's acting career was launched in the recently concluded TV series of Robin on GMA7, "Joaquin Bordado" while Queenie has also signified her interest to also join showbiz and will be introduced in her dad's new show, "Totoy Bato. "

While their mom (Liezl) and their two younger siblings - ZhenZhen and Allih are in Australia, Robin takes care of his two teen-age daughters in Manila.

Now that Queenie and Kylie have both joined showbiz, it would be a nice idea if Robin and his daughters will be featured in one project together, be it on TV or movie.

The Japanese prefer Filipino nurses and caregivers because they have the heart, dedication and compassion for the job but learning the Japanese language is very important and this is the reason why Heartful Philippine Institute, Inc. was put up. The school which opened last September 3 offers Niponggo classes from six to eight months and graduates from the school are already assured of jobs in Japan.

Heartful Philippine Institute, Inc. is located at the upper third floor of the Kimura-Vale Building located at 1971 Leon Guinto St. , Malate, Manila. Interested parties may call telephone numbers 5221671 or 5360123 and look for either Lucy or Armie.
