MANILA – TV host and former MTV VJ Donita Rose revealed on Tuesday that she has been granted divorce from Eric Villarama, her husband of more than a decade.

“I’m actually divorced. Na-finalize siya noong December of last year,” Rose said in an interview with the entertainment website Pep.

It has been a year since Rose revealed in a podcast that she and Villarama have parted ways.

But the TV host continues her fight as she goes through the tedious process of annulment.

“Nalaman ko, kasi Filipino citizen ako, kailangan palang mag-annulment pa rin ako. So that’s gonna take… I’m only going to start now sa annulment process,” she said.

Rose and Villarama married in 2003 in Santa Barbara, California. Now a chef, Rose said she has moved on from the separation.

“One of the reasons why I know na nakapag-move on na ako is because ‘yung son ko, he went to visit his dad for three months. Noong una, parang ayaw ko, kasi parang ang sama-sama ng loob ko. But I realized na meron pala akong mga hang-ups pa rin sa nangyari. I had to get over it. It changed me. Now I’m able to think straight again. I can laugh at life and enjoy everything,” she said.
