Selin?e M?ndez, Miss Dominican Republic 1998 and television personality, has admitted that she is two months pregnant with triplets. In spite of problems with the former wife of her newlywed husband, Roberto Carreras, Selin?e said that she is happy and her parents are already having parties to celebrate the arrival of their first three grandchildren, two boys and a girl. The marriage was a surprise to the media, as the model had always said she would never wed. Only four days after the private ceremony at Neptuno Restaurant in Boca Chica, the newspapers carried the story of the writ of opposition submitted by the ex-wife of the groom, Francina Zapata, who alleged that the divorce between her and Carreras was not complete. M?ndez and Carreras were forced to alter their honeymoon plans and returned quickly to Santo Domingo to sort things out. According to the report in the List?n, M?ndez says that the problems presented by her husband?s ex-wife are merely ?little stones in the road?that have not dampened our happiness.?
Selin?e M?ndez is a host on the ?Perdone la hora? show, which airs every night on
Color Vision, Channel 9. She is due to give birth to the triplets in December.
