RUBY RODRIGUEZ INFANTICIPATING

Manila, Dec. 11, 1997 - Comedienne Ruby Rodriguez, who married Mark Aquino last October, is three months pregnant.

Ethel Ramos of Malaya writes that people close to the actress go out at all hours to look for "santol" fruit, which unfortunately is out of season. Ruby's pregnancy has given her a craving for the sour fruit.

Ruby continues to co-host the noontime variety show "Eat Bulaga" and is even appearing as guest star in one of the episode of "Kaya Ni Misis, Kaya Ni Mister" on ABS-CBN, starring her best friend Maricel Soriano and macho actor Cesar Montano.

Ruby was a kindergarten teacher when Maricel urged her to try showbiz.
