Ruffa Gutierrez as one of the most beautiful woman in the philippines

Ruffa Gutierrez

She has been declared as one of the most beautiful women in the Philippines. She has acted in television and movies in more occasions than people would ever care to count. She has been through controversy and duress, yet she still stands proud and tall as a woman who has seen almost everything there is to be seen in the Philippine showbiz industry.

Ruffa Gutierrez is a Filipino actress, former beauty queen, and model who won the title of Binibining Pilipinas World in 1993 and was the Second Princess in Miss World 1993. She was born as Sharmaine Ruffa Rama Gutierrez on June 24, 1974, in Manila, Philippines, to Eddie Gutierrez, a very popular mestizo actor in the 1960s, and former actress, Annabelle Rama. She is the oldest among three children, others being identical twin brothers, Raymond and Richard, who are both actors as well.Upon achieving success in the world of beauty pageants, she started off in her career as an actress. She has starred in over 50 different films in the Philippines and has done countless appearances on television. During 1994, she got herself in a very huge controversy when she won, though by cheating, the Best Actress Award for Loretta in the Twentieth Metro Manila Film Festival. The story rocked the film industry. The award was meant for Aiko Melendez, one of her good friends. The error was corrected a couple of days after.Ruffa married a Turkish businessman named Yilmaz Bektas in 2003. At first, their marriage seemed to be perfect and golden, as their union resulted with two children and Ruffa staying in Istanbul, Turkey, where her husband resides in. She had even converted to the Islamic faith. That was until accusations of horrible abuse such as being electrocuted in the bathtub, continuously being beaten for fifteen hours straight, being locked up in the cabinet for hours at a time, and so on. Yilmaz retaliated by denying the torture, though he confirmed that he indeed slapped her once. This, after he learned that she was previously married. But the accusations did do much to tarnish their four-year marriage, and they came to a mutual agreement of ending it all together on May 2007.Since then, she has reconverted back to her Christian faith and came back to the Philippines to continue her showbiz career and to take care of her kids. She claimed that Bektas has been threatening them for some time now, so she requested protection from the police force, which was granted for a month. A little bit later, they reconciled, and Bektas plans to repropose to her, but only “at the right time,” as he said, as well as gaining blessing from her family. This would be close to a total impossibility since Annabelle Rama has publicly stated that she does not want to see Bektas.She now hosts the showbiz talk show “The Buzz,” replacing Kris Aquino, who took maternity leave. Supposedly, a temporary replacement, Kris has announced her resignation from the show, so Ruffa becomes a permanent host from now on. Ruffa has also starred in a hit fantaserye of ABS-CBN entitled Kokey. If she’s not working and taking care of her kids, she’s busy with her Roof-a-Child Foundation.
