Jackie Lou Blanco delivered a eulogy for her former husband, Ricky Davao, where she referred to herself and two other women in Ricky’s life as “Aida, Lorna, and Fe.”
In Tuesday’s “Fast Talk with Boy Abunda,” Jackie Lou explained that it stemmed from a specific interaction in the hospital shortly before Ricky’s passing.
Jackie Lou shared that she was approached by Ricky’s doctor, who was unsure how to address the various individuals present.
She went on to explain that she’s Ricky’s wife, but they have “been separated for long,” Mayeth Malca is his girlfriend, and Cheryl Singzon is the mother of Ricky’s youngest child.
“Sabi niya, ‘Ah, OK po kayong tatlo?’ ‘OK naman kami. Obviously, we're all here.’ So, to my mind, it just came out na parang Aida, Lorna, Fe kaming tatlo,” Jackie Lou said.
Per Jackie Lou, she wanted to honor Ricky more as a father and grandfather in her eulogy for him.
“And I wanted to thank Malca because she really took good care of Ricky. ‘Yung Aida, Lorna, Fe, lumabas na lang ‘yon because ‘yun nga ‘yung joke namin,” she said.
Jackie Lou’s reference, her 1989 film “Si Aida, si Lorna, o si Fe,” followed the story of a man who had three girlfriends.
When asked if she has a relationship with Malca and Cheryl, Jackie Lou admitted that it was awkward at first with Malca.
“But I did not want to have any awkward feelings kasi we would see each other sa binyag ng mga apo or whatever. So my prayer was only, ‘Lord, tanggalin mo na ‘yung awkwardness para OK na,’” she said.
“We would really help each other more when Ricky got sick ‘cause we were all there and we all had our assignments,” she said.
Meanwhile, Jackie Lou first met Cheryl when Teddy, Ricky's youngest, was seven years old.
“And wala, OK lang din sa akin kasi, I don’t know, Tito Boy. Parang OK lang. Kasi parang feeling ko, Ricky and I didn’t work and I was happy that somebody else was making him happy,” she said.
Ricky’s death was confirmed by his daughter, Ara Davao, on May 2. He passed away from complications related to cancer. He was 63.
Ricky and Jackie Lou got married in 1989, but the two separated later on.
Following his passing, Jackie Lou said on Instagram that he "will forever be missed."
