World Boxing Association (WBA) Super Flyweight champion Nonito "The Filipino Flash" Donaire Jr. is very proud of his wife Rachel Marcial-Donaire's achievements. Aside from opening her own purse and bag business, Rachel was included in the recent FHM World's 100 Sexiest Women list, landing in No. 85. "Definitely, I'm really proud of her and I will not stop her. Actually, ako pa nga yung nag-e-encourage sa kanya na, 'why not? Sige, gawin mo 'yan.' Pero siguro I will take the best picture in terms of sexiness ratings," says Nonito about the possibility of a photo shoot again with FHM.

"Definitely, I'm really proud of her and I will not stop her. Actually, ako pa nga yung nag-e-encourage sa kanya na, 'Why not? Sige, gawin mo 'yan.' Pero siguro I will take the best picture in terms of sexiness ratings."

Tinanong naman ng PEP si Rachel tungkol sa Vera Coulture Nonito Donaire Jr. bags na project niya. Ni-launch kamakailan ni Rachel ang kanyang Vera Coulture Bags and Purses store sa Fort Bonifacio, Global City, Taguig.

"We're still in production... Every single bag takes two to three months. So, upon the launch of the store, I already worked with the production to make that Nonito Donaire bag, but we're still tweaking it pa, kasi, di ba nga, it has to be perfect. The bag is, you know, not for him, but for me, but he has his name on it. So, I really want it to be perfect. If it has to take six months, to a year or two years, for it to finally come out, well...that's how long it will take," sagot ni Rachel.

NONITO SLIPS UP.  Natanong naman ang mag-asawa kung kailan ba nila balak magkaroon ng baby. Sagot ni Nonito, magiging grateful daw sila ni Rachel kung mangyari man na magka-baby agad sila, pero sa ngayon daw na aktibung-aktibo siya sa boxing at showbiz, kung maaari raw ay huwag muna silang magkaanak.

"Ayokong maging selfish. Pag nandun na yung anak ko, I would like to spend every minute, every hour, and every time na I will see my son or my daughter grow up, I will be there and give them whatever that I got. Ayoko na, lalaban ako, wala ako dun, o wala si Daddy, kasi nagte-training. Ayoko ng ganun. Gusto ko na nandun ako to give and to know na I love my kids, and I will be there to protect them. Parang gano'n yung gusto ko," paliwanag ni Nonito.

Pero kailan nga nila balak gawin ang little Nonito o little Rachel nila?

"Siguro five years... O, matagal ba? O sige, siguro three years. Or actually..." Napatingin muna si Nonito kay Rachel na katabi lang niya sa presidential table. "For sure, after the wedding. 11-11-11, so, I have to wait a year to see..."

Napatakip ng mukha si Rachel nang banggitin ni Nonito ang "11-11-11." Yun kasi ang date ng church wedding nila—November 11, 2011. Natigilan si Nonito sa reaksiyon ni Rachel at ng in-laws niya na naroon din sa presscon.

"Nobody told me it was a secret! What, is that a secret? Wrong pala. Nobody told me," pilit na bawi ni Nonito sa kasasabi lang niya. "Anyways...geez...Cut, cut, cut... Paki-edit na lang...

Tawa naman nang tawa si Rachel sa slip-up ni Nonito.

"Rewind. Well, after a year... I have to wait for a year, kasi we're getting married... Secret yun, ha!" natatawa pa niyang sabi. "For sure, we would love to...uh, make babies."

"It's really about the time. Kasi with his boxing and with his dabbling in photography, and sa showbiz, we really want to make time for it. Sa States, walang yaya, di ba? So, I mean, even the laundry, I have to do the laundry. And if we have a baby pa, that's just more laundry." Tawanan ang mga naroon sa sinabing ito ni Rachel.

"We're solidifying and perfecting our 'team' and how everything works, and then, when the time is right, we'll have... Pero if God grants us one, without planning, then it was meant to be that way," pahabol ni Rachel.
