Filipina Maid Marries English Baron

Baron Southampton and Alma Pasqual

A Positively Filipino reader sent an undated news clipping about a Filipina maid who married an English baron. The sender also provided a translation:  "Lord makes his cleaning woman his Lady: The aristocratic family upped their nose as the English Baron Southampton, 70, married his 34-year-old younger cleaning woman, Alma Pasqual of the Philippines and from here on officially made her his Baroness and Lady. And the heir is baby Charles who opened his eyes to the world. The Lord and lady are very happy."
