Maricar Reyes continued her career in the entertainment industry after being involved in a scandal in 2009. She has since appeared in various television shows and movies, and also practices medicine.
Maricar Reyes, a Filipino actress and doctor, was thrust into the spotlight in 2009 when private videos of her with her then-boyfriend, Hayden Kho, were leaked online without her consent. The scandal was widely publicized and led to a Senate investigation in the Philippines. Despite the controversy, Reyes managed to turn the situation around and focus on her career and personal growth.
She married singer and songwriter Richard Poon in 2013, and the couple has maintained a relatively low-profile, yet stable presence in the entertainment industry. Reyes has appeared in several TV series such as “Precious Hearts Romances Presents: Bud Brothers,” “Imortal,” and “La Luna Sangre.” She has also been involved in movies like “The Healing” and “Starting Over Again.”
Aside from her acting career, Reyes is also a licensed physician. She graduated from the University of Santo Tomas Faculty of Medicine and Surgery and passed the Philippine medical board exam. Her ability to balance her medical profession with her acting career has been admired by many. Despite the setback early in her career, Reyes has demonstrated resilience and continues to be respected both as an actress and a medical professional.
