Wedding Bells Na Ba? Church Banns Reveal Bea Alonzo and Vincent Co Are About to Tie the Knot
Showbiz fans are losing their minds after marriage banns for actress Bea Alonzo and businessman Vincent Co were publicly announced at St. Peter the Apostle Parish in Manila. The banns, read on Sunday, March 8, listed the couple under their legal names — "Ferdinand Vincent Pe Co" as groom and "Phylbert Angelli Escalante Ranollo" as bride.
For those unfamiliar, marriage banns are a centuries-old Catholic tradition where an upcoming wedding is publicly announced in the parish for three consecutive Sundays. It's basically the church's way of letting anyone raise objections before the couple says "I do." So yeah, this is pretty much the most official unofficial wedding announcement you can get.
The couple first sparked romance rumors back in May 2025 when eagle-eyed fans noticed they were both posting photos from the same spots in Andalucía, Spain. They went public at the Puregold OPM Con 2025 held at the Philippine Arena in July, confirming what everyone had already suspected.
Vincent is the son of retail tycoons Lucio Co and Susan Co, and serves as president and director of Puregold Price Club — one of the biggest supermarket chains in the country. Bea, meanwhile, remains one of the most bankable actresses in Philippine cinema with a career spanning over two decades.
Neither Bea nor Vincent has officially confirmed or denied the wedding rumors, but honestly, when the church is already reading your banns out loud, the cat's pretty much out of the bag. Congratulations in advance to the couple — we're all waiting for that official invite!
